Re: Lisp Syntax - functions versus data

Here you have passed the literal list (LAMBDA (X) (+ 3 X)) as a
function, because you quoted that form: Instead you need to pass a
function.

What does it mean?
Instead of passing a function he should have passed a... function?

Sorry! What I meant to say was: he passed a (literal) list as an
argument to a function which was expecting that argument to be a
function.

It was early in the morning, and the cat wrote it anyway.
