Welcome to ,\ AMBDA!
What is ,\ AMBDA?
,\ AMBDA. is a PLT hobby group at IIT Gandhinagar. It was formed as a hobby group in October 2024, and will (hopefully) be soon formally established as a club.
What is PLT?
PLT stands for programming language theory. Programming language theory has had a long history, with the lambda calculus (our namesake) being formalised by Alonzo Church in the 1930s.
How does ,\ AMBDA engage with PLT?
Many ways. In particular, our overarching goals are -
- spread awareness of PLT and related topics on the IITGN campus.
- stay in touch with research in PLT, both past and current.
- keep in touch with people engaged with PLT, whether they be in academia or industry.
- conduct meaningful projects which should, at the very least, contribute to the understanding of the students involved in them.
