EVALUATION A lambda expression AST node should contains the following info: *) list of JCVariableDecl (for lambda parameters) *) lambda body Since the body can be either a JCBlock or a JCExpression, it would be useful to use an enum to encode the lambda expression kind (i.e. statement lambda vs. expression lambda).
