[net.lang] FP references

dfz (11/02/82)

Because of the large number of inquiries I have received on FP references,
I am posting a list for those who wish to read more.
The best sources of information on FP and related topics are:

	[1] Backus, John, "Can Programming Be Liberated from the
	    von Neumann Style? A Functional Style and Its Algebra
	    of Programs", Communications of the ACM, Vol. 21 #8,
	    pp. 613-641, August 1978.

	[2] Proceedings of the 1981 Conference on Functional Programming
	    Languages and Computer Architecture, ACM order #556810,
	    (approx. $20).

	[3] Conference Record of the 1982 ACM Symposium on LISP and
	    Functional Programming, ACM order #552820 (approx. $20).
