Lambdas

• Can also be viewed as anonymous procedures.
• Has the following syntax:

(lambda <args> <expressions>)

where <expressions> is one or more, well, expressions. Only the last expression's value is returned.
<args> is your variable definitions, which can take the following forms:

• var - all arguments are put into this single variable.
• (var[1] var[2] ... ) - specifies a fixed number of arguments.
• (var[1] var[2] ... . var[n]) - a space-delimited period before the final argument specifies the remaining args (if any) to be put into a list under that variable.
