Intuitionistic proofs into typed lambda-terms is a simple instance of an internalization property of a our system lambda-infinity which unifies intuitionistic propositions (types) with lambda-calculus and which is capable of internalizing its own derivations as lambda-terms. It's just easier to Similarly, you become dissatisfied with most languages' syntax for method calling when you grasp Smalltalk's message-passing syntax and semantics. Apr 21, 2009 - Making this work was one of the deep insights that made a recursive syntax-semantics interface possible, because the you don't have different semantic types for things that are the same syntactic type. Feb 16, 2006 - But what got me really thinking was the way holdsDuring takes formulas as arguments, despite the claim that SUMO is written in SUO-KIF, which has pretty traditional first-order syntax and semantics. Dec 5, 2011 - Now I'm getting into Smalltalk 'for real' and finding that the OO-ness of it is not even the main thing I find compelling: it's the live-ness of it. Sep 1, 2006 - One of the really amazing things about this, which I'll show, is that a simply typed lambda calculus is completely semantically equivalent to an intuitionistic propositional logic: each type in the program is a proposition in the logic; The syntax part is easy. We add a “:” to the notation; the colon has an expression or variable binding on its left, and a type specification on its right. I wanted to explain the motivation behind free monads in terms that a programmer would understand and my post explains the topic in terms of creating a syntax tree and interpreting that syntax tree. The best article I've found that really explains church encodings is this one: http://matt.might.net/articles/compiling-up-to-lambda-calculus/ It's done in a subset of Scheme, though, not Haskell. It asserts that whatever is on the left side of the colon has the type specified on the right side. Would motivate their use cases using mathematical examples. Suddenly To my delight, Smalltalk blocks have much in common with the lambda calculus functional programming really taught me to appreciate.
