lua-lambda

Takes a string, returns a function for quick function definition.

Usage

The lambda format is as follows:

l"(args) expr"

Example:

local add_one = l"(x) x+1"
print(add_one(5)) --> 6

Why?

Because Lua needs more atomic modules which add functionality without creating a huge library. This module is supposed to be dead-simple to grab and start using in your project without adding anything extra. One of Lua's strengths is minimalism, and I think that it's ecosystem would do well to mirror that.
