Lambda project is a Lambda calculus interpreter.

It reduces lambda expressions and converts them into the S, K, and I combinators (ext). It has the ability to associate names with lambda expressions (def), load definitions from a file (load), and list current definitions (list).

Lambda expressions representing integers are automatically defined as needed. Many interesting combinators are provided in a definition file.

Various settings are provided to influence the way reduction and extraction are performed (set).

A short manual is provided showing how lambda works.

Here are some key features of "Lambda":
Load predefined lambda expression
Many definitions provided: numbers Y fact map iszero list 1st 2nd 3rd ADD MUL EXP list suc pred . . .
Automatic number definitions.
Interpret lambda expressions.
Single step interpretation.
Normal or application order reductions.
Variable extraction (Conversion to S K I)
List definitions.
Some lambda calculus theory.

Requirements:
libstdc++

What's New in This Release:
Add xapp flag for ext command.
Made ext behave consistently when extracting constant expressions.
Add preprocessing for user manual. This automatically inserts a table of contents and does character entity translations.
