I may have asked this before, but does the Csound 6 orchestra language have lambdas and/or closures?

Regards,
Mike

Not currently.  Lambdas and closure both require there to be variables
with type :Opcode or something like that.  I've chatted with John Lato
and Victor about adding an Opcode type for variables so that we could
do stuff like:

aout map sin, asig

(There's a tabmap currently that's close, but uses an opcode name by
string like "sin"). I guess if we had lambdas we could do:

aout map {|k| -> sin(k)}, asig

or some other syntax.  The compiler could then read the lambda,
generated an anonymous UDO, then replace the usage with the generated
call (i.e. #udo1).  Closure would be a bit more difficult.

I'm interested to have opcodes as types so we can do
map/foldl/foldr/filter/apply/etc. kind of functional programming
stuff.
