Post #117,120 by JimWeirich 9/8/03 5:55:25 PM Reply	Re: Call/CC One real world example ... turning internal interators into external iterators. See [link\|http://jimweirich.umlcoop.net/articles/same_fringe/index.html\|http://jimweirich.um...fringe/index.html] for details. Another real world example ... programming web page navigation (supporting the use of the back button) in a linear manner. See Avi Bryant's work with Seaside (Smalltalk version -- [link\|http://beta4.com/seaside2/\|http://beta4.com/seaside2/]) and related work with Borges (Ruby version -- [link\|http://segment7.net/ruby-code/borges/borges.html\|http://segment7.net/...orges/borges.html]). I've also written some stuff on Continuation Passing Style, tail recursion and call/cc at [link\|http://onestepback.org/index.cgi/Tech/Programming/Kata\|http://onestepback.o.../Programming/Kata], although this is probably much the same stuff that you are getting from your Scheme book. -- -- Jim Weirich jweirich@one.net [link\|http://onestepback.org\|http://onestepback.org] --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it." -- Donald Knuth (in a memo to Peter van Emde Boas)
Post #117,126 by JimWeirich 9/8/03 6:42:56 PM Reply	Duplication Hmmm ... I took a peek at the web page for "Teach yourself scheme". Cool. I see that they also solve the same-fringe problem. Oh well. The Seaside stuff is still interesting. BTW, the (amb) function in the next chapter looks interesting. I remember someone doing a similar thing in FORTH, except it wasn't "angelic" (if I'm using the term properly). -- -- Jim Weirich jweirich@one.net [link\|http://onestepback.org\|http://onestepback.org] --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it." -- Donald Knuth (in a memo to Peter van Emde Boas)

Hopefully it was a very temporary victory of the ignorant.
