In this chapter, I begin by describing in detail the various kinds of data that can appear in a LambdaMOO database and that, therefore, MOO programs can manipulate. In a few places, I refer to the LambdaCore database. This is one particular LambdaMOO database, created every so often by extracting the "core" of the current database for the original LambdaMOO.
Note: The original LambdaMOO resides on the host
lambda.parc.xerox.com
(the numeric address for which is192.216.54.2
), on port 8888. Feel free to drop by! A copy of the most recent release of the LambdaCore database can be obtained by anonymous FTP from hostftp.parc.xerox.com
in the directorypub/MOO
