_h1 Prime Pattern                          ;; note the altenate form to write a title

_p A {b Prime Pattern} is a pattern that has been simplified down to three parts, what could be called a [[Trivium|https://dev2.wiki.innovateoregon.org/view/prime-pattern/view/trivium]].

_p In software development, the process of simplification is call [[Refactoring|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring]] . When you refactor code, you having the code do the same tasks, but simplifying how it does them. In this process, the code becomes more "elegant".

_p There is a similar process possible with complex ideas. If the ideas remain their complex form, it is very difficult to share them with others. As a result, their impact, within a larger community, is limited. But if those concepts can be distilled down to a simple form - a pattern - they can be more easily shared.

_p A great example is the [[Theory of Relativity|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_relativity]]  an immensely complex concept. By Einstein's "refactoring" this concept to  {code E=mc{sup 2}} his concept became well known to an audience far beyond his scientific community.

_p A [[Trivium|https://dev2.wiki.innovateoregon.org/view/prime-pattern/view/trivium]] can be called the simplest and most elegant pattern, what we could call a prime pattern. A prime pattern, as a "three-legged stool", is dynamically balanced and becomes a powerful container of meaning.

_p [[Core Values|https://dev2.wiki.innovateoregon.org/view/prime-pattern/view/core-values]] can be Prime Patterns

_h2 introduction

{prewrap
Hi Thompson, welcome to '{lambda talk}.

This page is your [[Prime Pattern|https://dev2.wiki.innovateoregon.org/view/prime-pattern]] page rewritten in '{lambda talk} syntax.

In this page the [[fed_style]] is intentionally not used in order to keep things simple, just a title, a few paragraphs, some links and a picture. Click on the pages's grey title "prime_pattern" to open the page editor, analyze the code and edit it.

The syntax is systematic: '{function ... any expression ...}. 
For instance:

- writing '{b words} boldifies words
- writing '{h1 words} makes words a title of level one
- writing '{p words} makes words a paragraph
- writing '{a {@ href="URL"}NAME} creates a link to "URL" displayed as "NAME" 
- writing '{img {@ src="URL" width="100%"}} displays a picture at URL

HTML tags - b, h1, p, a, img, ... - are well documented on the web, learning lambdatalk is learning HTML/CSS in a comfortable armchair. And if lambdatalk doesn't fit your needs you will have learnt some useful parts of HTML/CSS, you won't have loose your time.

As it can be seen in this page, in order to make things easier, curly braces can be forgotten for a small set of tags - titles, paragraphs, pictures and links - and replaced by easier alternate forms. More later.

And if Ward Cunningham instals '{lambda talk} in your fed-wiki you'll be able to test it more comfortably. Done in [[ustawi.wiki|http://alain.lambda.ustawi.wiki/]].
