<strong>PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION </strong><br>
<br>
One of PHP5.3's terrific features is the ability to use lambdas. But,
wait, didn't we already have that with PHP5? What was create_function()
about after all? What is the difference between a lambda and a closure
or is there any in PHP? Come and explore with me these and other
questions in an adventure to discover the truth about lambdas in PHP.
The presentation touches on the origins of the lambda and its
implementation in PHP5.3. Far greater emphasis is on live code
demonstrations of lambdas (and closures, too!) as well as in-depth
discussion about the code. <br>
