+## Module name: Lambdas
+
+_Skeleton descriptions are typeset in italic text,_
+_so please don't remove these descriptions when editing the topic._
+
+### Overview
+
+_Provides a short natural language abstract of the module’s contents._
+_Specifies the different levels of teaching._
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Level             Objective
+----------------- ------------------------------------------------------
+Foundational      Define and execute lambdas with basic capture syntax
+
+Main              Passing instances of lambdas for use in external code
+
+Advanced          Generic lambdas, utilizing mutable state, mapping 
+                  to function objects, decay to function pointers
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+### Motivation
+
+_Why is this important?_
+_Why do we want to learn/teach this topic?_
+
+* Function objects in relation to the standard library, e.g. for passing functions to the standard algorithms or auxiliary functions
+* Allows the developer to define and pass functionality as values/data/information
+* Allows developer to operate in a functional-programming mindset
+* Improves code readability by localizing the code
+* Making code more compact by writing functions in-place 
+* Library designs taking callables allows the library to be customizable for the consumer, while lambdas make this usage approachable
+
+### Topic introduction
+
+_Very brief introduction to the topic._
+
+Lambdas were added in C++11 and have grown in power and functionality ever since.
+
+### Foundational: Define and execute lambdas with basic capture syntax
+
+#### Background/Required Knowledge
+
+A student:
+_TODO: Add cross-reference to these
+Explain function argument  passing by value or by reference
+
+#### Student outcomes
+
+_A list of things "a student should be able to" after the curriculum._
+_The next word should be an action word and testable in an exam._
+_Max 5 items._
+
+A student should be able to:
+
+1. Use a lambda taking a concrete type as a parameter and return a value
+2. Transform a function definition into a lambda and use it
+3. Enumerate trade-offs of code-locality using lambdas vs code reuse with free-functions
+4. Assign a lambda to a variable for multiple calls
+5. Named lambdas to increase code readability
+6. Explain capture-by-value and capture-by-reference
+
+
+
+#### Caveats
+
+_This section mentions subtle points to understand, like anything resulting in
+implementation-defined, unspecified, or undefined behavior._
+
+#### Points to cover
+
+_This section lists important details for each point._
+
+### Main: Passing instances of lambdas for use in external code
+
+#### Background/Required Knowledge
+
+* All of the above.
+
+#### Student outcomes
+
+A student should be able to:
+
+1. Utilize `std::function` as a means to hold and transfer lambdas
+2. Define a function-template taking a lambda as a template parameter
+3. Specify, per parameter, whether to capture by reference or value
+4. Specify the default capture type for a lambda
+5. Specify the return type for a lamda function, if not detected by the compiler
+5. Use a lambda in a class, capturing and utilizing class data via `this`
+
+#### Caveats
+
+#### Points to cover
+
+motivation: 
+1. how to write library code to call user code? --- callbacks
+2. root finding using lambdas
+3. "customizing" generic algorithms
+
+### Advanced
+Explain why they can't write out the type of a lambda?
+_These are important topics that are not expected to be covered but provide
+guidance where one can continue to investigate this topic in more depth._
+
+
+#### Background/Required Knowledge
+
+* All of the above.
+
+#### Student outcomes
+
+A student should be able to:
+
+1. Use a lambda to introduce a new identifier for use within the body of the lambda
+2. Explain the relationships between generic lambdas and templates
+3. Construct an object with choice between 2 constructors, using immediately-dispatched lambda (see first listing)
+4. Utilize an immediately dispatched lambda to encode multiple statements where the language requires an expression
+5. Use the `mutable` keyword to allow changing a captured-by-value or lambda-local value within the lambda body
+6. Explicitly specify the return type for a lambda
+7. Explain under what conditions an explicit return type is necessary
+
+#### Caveats
+
+#### Points to cover
+
+Construct an object with choice between 2 constructors:
+```
+class X;
+bool b;
+X x = [c = b](){ if (c) return X(5, 10) else X("a", "b"); }();
+```
+
+Todo add caption
+```
+assert([](){
+	std::vector v{1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
+	for (auto x: v) std::cout << v << std::endl;
+}());
+```
+
+
+Capture can introduce new names by initializing them as `capture-default`
+```
+char const* const s = "5";
+[x=atoi(s)](){}
+```
+
+`Capture-default` variables can be altered by the lambda body if the lamda is marked as `mutable`
+```
+std::ranges::for_each(
+	std::vector{1,2,3,4,5},
+	// introducing new identifier
+	// generic lambda
+	// mutable allows changing "init"
+	[init = true] (auto&& x) mutable {
+		if (init) 
+		{ std::cout << x; init = false}; 
+		else 
+		{ std::cout << ',' << x;}
+	});
+```
+
+When to use lambdas or not:
+forcing code into a lambda can prevent some features
+```
+std::for_each(std::par_sec, v, [](){/* can't utilize OpenMP here */}};
+for(auto i : v){ /* OpenMP can be utilized here */ }
+```
+
