The Wikipedia article on lambda abstractions (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_abstraction) has a statement that does not resonate with me:
A lambda abstraction is to a functional programming language such as Scheme what pseudo-code is to an imperative programming language.
Does anyone else find this to be a peculiar statement?  If you think it is accurate, could you provide an alternate explanation and/or example to the one in the article?
