Anonymous recursive functions in Racket

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-10 01:39:33

Anonymous recursive functions in Racket Context Some languages, like PowerShell, have “anonymous recursive functions”. That is, normally, a function needs to use a name to refer to itself to recur. But “anonymous recursion” means the language has some special mechanism by which the function can refer to itself without having to explicitly introduce a name. In some contexts, this is called an anaphoric reference. Code Here we show how we can easily implement this feature in Racket. The file a

Stephen Schenck / Android Authority I feel like a lot of people follow a similar journey when it comes to projectors. They’re initially wowed by the allure of a giant picture, bringing the cinema experience home.

Almost 500 people were detained Thursday in an immigration raid at a new Hyundai manufacturing complex in Georgia. The massive raid highlights growing tensions between President Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policies, his tariff-fueled trade negotiations, and his promise to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. “This was the largest single-site enforcement operation in the history of Homeland Security Investigations,” said Steven Schrank, a special agent in charge of the agency’s Atlanta
