Announcing LAMBDA: Turn Excel formulas into custom functions (techcommunity.microsoft.com) 3 points by smlckz 5y ago ↗ HN
[–] smlckz 5y ago ↗ With Turing-completeness, the obvious problem is infinite recursion.Say, you defined a function OMEGA as: =LAMBDA(F, F(F)) and then call =OMEGA(OMEGA) hmm.Well, it is not clear if Excel's LAMBDAs are first-class or not. If not, the above wouldn't work.
