Logic of Computable Functions

Logic of Computable Functions (LCF) is a deductive system for computable functions proposed by Dana Scott in 1969 in a memorandum unpublished until 1993.[1] It inspired:

Logic for Computable Functions (LCF), theorem proving logic by Robin Milner.[2]
Programming Computable Functions (PCF), small theoretical programming language by Gordon Plotkin.[3]
