Kappa calculus
text:
In mathematical logic, category theory, and
computer science, kappa calculus is a
formal system for defining first-order
functions. Unlike lambda calculus, kappa calculus has no
higher-order functions; its functions are
not first class objects. Kappa-calculus can be
regarded as "a reformulation of the first-order fragment of typed
lambda calculus". Because its functions are not first-class objects, evaluation of kappa
calculus expressions does not require
closures.
