Lamdba (like most Greek letters in statistics) usually denotes a parameter of a distribution (usually of Poisson, gamma or exponential distributions). This will specify the entire distribution and allow for numerical analysis of the probability generating, moment generating, probability density/mass, distribution and/or cumulant functions (along with all moments), as and where these are defined.
Where f(x) = lambda* exp(-lambda*x), Inverse cumulative distribution= -ln(1-p)/lambda. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_distribution Note that if used in random number generation, with "x" equal to the random deviate, then given U ~ uniform(0,1), then x = -ln(U)/lambda.
The two main branches of statistics is Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics.

No, 'statistics' is a noun.
In the ancient Greek system, the letter Lambda had a value of 30. Nowadays, the lower case lambda stands for the wave length. In statistics, it is the parameter of the Poisson distribution and represents the reciprocal of the frequency.
The motto of Lambda Lambda Lambda is 'Follow the Twelve'.
Lambda Lambda Lambda was created on 2006-01-15.

Lambda Upsilon Lambda was created on 1982-02-19.
They try to join the fraternity Lambda, Lambda, Lambda (the "Tri-Lams").
The motto of Lambda Upsilon Lambda is 'La Unidad Para Siempre'.
Just write this as lambda/4, or (1/4)lambda. You can't get a numerical value, unless you know the value of lambda.
The reverse operation of lambda lifting is called lambda dropping. Lambda dropping is an algorithm that allows one to transform a lambda function back to different separate free-variables.
Lambda is the eleventh letter of the Greek alphabet.
Lambda Sigma was created in 1922.
Lambda Omega was created in 1915.
