That article ''wants'' to describe the same concept. An ''anonymous'' function [[per se]] is damn useless. What makes it useful is that it can be passed around. But that article fails to explain this, or pretty much anything, besides giving some examples that largely overlap with this article.

: Rather tellingly, that article does not cite a single programming languages theory book, but use plenty of jargon from various implementations as if they were theoretical concepts universally known by that name.

:Please ''don't'' merge AF here, except maybe a mention that just as say, a number can be passed between/assigned to several variables in a language; the concept of an Anonymous Function is a function that can be assigned to multiple variables or stored in collection types, which aids in making functions as first class as other types in the language. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 21:57, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
