Re: Some tasks from the conference

That doesn't look as impressive.

All you need is to first define this general but strange-looking function:

...

function Y(function f)

{ return lambda(mixed y) { return (lambda(function x, mixed w) { return f(lambda(mixed z) { return x(x, z); }, w); }) (lambda(function x, mixed w) { return f(lambda(mixed z) { return x(x, z); }, w); }, y); }; }

It took me quite a while to try to remember what the function looks like, and then write it in pike ;-)

Wouldn't this be easier:

function Y(function f) { function Z(mixed ... y) { return f(Z, @y); }; return Z; }
