Not sure if this needs the addition of a more stretching task ? It may already not be all that easy to implement in languages with limited support for higher-order functions. In AppleScript, for example, my first sketches of churchMultiply all produce a stack overflow. [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 22:09, 21 August 2018 (UTC) |

===Worker-wrapper transformation in Haskell=== |
|||
In response to Spoon!'s query – "not sure why `go` helper is necessary": the worker-wrapper transform is a useful reflex whenever recursion is needed. http://ku-fpg.github.io/practice/workerwrapper/ – (recursive name found in a more local namespace – often a smaller frame pushed to stack etc. etc) but no particular view on it here. Your edit looks fine. [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) |
