Oh is this some Common Lisp thing? Never done it.
- masklinn 4y agoIt's much older, it's lambda calculus stuff. It's a way to implement recursion in a language which doesn't have recursive functions (but for some reason does have first-class functions). However it allows making anonymous functions recurse as well.
