Fields in Physics are like Curried Functions or Physics for.. - Leavens (1994) (Correct)
....the kind of example that can be drawn from physics. Other examples include the dielectric force law. A curried version of the Scheme function grav force is given in Figure 2. Currying a function with more than one argument means expressing that function using nested one argument functions [Fre91, pages 153 156] Sch24] Cur30] CFC58] Bar84, Page 6] SF89, Section 7.3] As a start to explaining this concept, the Scheme expression ( grav force c 5.96e24) 6.37e6) 68.0) also has as its approximate value 666:2 newtons. In general the Scheme function grav force c is such that for all m 1 ....
....2 . Historically, this view of fields was made standard by the tremendous success of Maxwell s mathematics of the electromagnetic field [Max64] Although this view of fields may have been invented before Maxwell, Maxwell s use of it certainly came before curried functions were conceived by Frege [Fre91] and well before curried functions were used by Schonfinkel [Sch24] or made widely known by Curry [Cur30] CFC58] At that time there were no units for curried functions in Physics, which remains the case today. Instead Maxwell described his mathematics by using an analogy to fluid flow, in ....
