This cheat sheet contains lists of 'Hoon' words and symbols and short descriptions of what they are or what they do. Note that we unabashedly map Hoon concepts to the closest corresponding concept in other programming languages, even if the concepts are not quite the same. For example, in biology, [http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evosite/evo101/IIC1Homologies.shtml bird wings and bat wings are said to be analogous but not homologous], because they have similar function but they are not quite the same and indeed the common ancestor of birds and bats did not have wings. In this table, we map analogous concepts to each other even if they are not homologous; if bat wings and bird wings were here, we would map bat wings to bird wings. For example, we map 'gate' to 'function; see the section "Gates and lambda" from [http://doc.urbit.org/doc/hoon/tut/4/ Hoon tutorial section 4] for more discussion of this.
Please note that i am writing this in the process of learning Hoon, and i don't understand most of what is writt
