Today's Topics: 1. Values vs. Continuations (martin) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sat, 16 Jul 2016 11:28:30 +0200 From: martin <martin.drautzb...@web.de> To: The Haskell-Beginners Mailing List - Discussion of primarily beginner-level topics related to Haskell <beginners@haskell.org> Subject: [Haskell-beginners] Values vs. Continuations Message-ID: <5789fe3e.7030...@web.de> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Hello all, a suspended computation in the Continuation Monad is something you can apply a functio to, right? But this holds for ordinary values as well. In fact, some point out that continuations (acutually suspended computations) are almost indistinguishable from values. If that's the case, can somebody please explain what exactly is gained when we turn everything inside-out to get from values to suspended computations? ------------------------------ Subject: Digest Footer _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/beginners ------------------------------ End of Beginners Digest, Vol 97, Issue 11 *****************************************
