Do I understand the Y combinator?
According to Steven McGeady, Cunningham advised him in the early 1980s, "The best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question, it's to post the wrong answer." McGeady dubbed this "Cunningham's law".
According to the Cunningham's law, I propose my approach of the Y combinator concept in this page http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/?view=Ycombinator , waiting for a nice/gentle coder who could give me the right answer.
I thank you. Alain Marty

- brudgers 10y agoIf the code works, it might make sense to post it at CodeReview.StackExchange.com If it does not work, maybe StackOverflow if you can explain how it does not work.
- martyalain 10y agoOf course it works! You can test it in the page http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/?view=Ycombinator http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/?view=Ycombinator and, maybe more easily, in this one: http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/?view=ifibo http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/?view=ifibo
- brudgers 10y agoGreat. Then CodeReview would be my recommendation.
- martyalain 10y agoThank you, I will follow your recommendation.
- martyalain 10y ago... but my question http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/152579/do-i-understand-the-y-combinator http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/152579/do-i-un... was immediately deleted without any access to the link. I'm giving up!
- brudgers 10y agoCodeReview requires that there is code to review in the question, so if it was linked rather than included in the body of the question deletion is not unusual. The site guidelines might be worth reading.
- martyalain 10y agoYou are right, thanks. I did follow your new recommendation and put a new questionhere: http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/152621/do-i-understand-the-y-combinator http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/152621/do-i-un... . Let's see ...
- martyalain 10y agoThis is the last answer of the StackExchange's moderators: "It seems you have misunderstood the purpose of this site." So I gave up!
