I found an example of shift-reset delimited continuations in Haskell here: resetT $ do alfa bravo x <- shiftT $ \esc -> do charlie lift $ esc 1 delta lift $ esc 2 return 0 zulu x T...

The following is a simple example of using delimited continuation (reset/shift): import Control.Monad import Control.Monad.Trans import Control.Monad.Trans.Cont test :: Integer test = evalCont . r...

Back in the day, I thought I understood call/cc. These days I'm seeing a lot more references to "delimited" continuation operators, which seem to come in pairs like shift/reset, pro...

I am not sure I understand the difference between the delimited continuation operator pairs prompt/control and reset/shift. I understand some basic examples of use, but in those examples their beha...

The topic of delimited continuations was barely discussed among programming language enthusiasts in the 1990s. It has recently been re-emerging as a major thing in programming language discussions....

I just finished Programming in Scala, and I've been looking into the changes between Scala 2.7 and 2.8. The one that seems to be the most important is the continuations plugin, but I don't understa...

I study delimited continuations and am currently playing with discarding them to obtain an effect similar to raising exceptions. Here is what causes me trouble: const structure = type => c...

While trying to build some intuition for the ContT monad transformer I (perhaps unsurprisingly) found myself confused. The issue lies with the shiftT operation which doesn't seem to do anything use...

I'm trying to decipher the documentation call-with-continuation-prompt Applies proc to the given args with the current continuation extended by a prompt. The prompt is tagged by prompt-tag, w...

Scala newbie here, I just downloaded Eclipse 3.6.2 and Scala IDE 2.0.0-beta4 (with Scala 2.9.0.final). I create a new Scala project to try delimited continuations: package delimCCTests import sca...

There is a well known issue that we cannot use forall types in the Cont return type. However it should be OK to have the following definition: class Monad m => MonadCont' m where callCC' :: (...

I'm wondering what's the relationship between the async/await pattern (as known from Scala, F#, C#, etc.) and continuations: Is the async/await pattern a limited subset of full-blown continuation...

I realize this is counter to the usual sense of SO questions, but the following code works even though I think it should not work. Below is a small Scala program that uses continuations with a whil...

I'm studying Oleg's and Asai's delimited continuations "for dummies" paper(http://pllab.is.ocha.ac.jp/~asai/cw2011tutorial/main-e.pdf) but this paper uses the shift/reset formalism instead of the p...

Interested in the concept of continuation, I started reading wikis, posts, and came to this "simple" example: reset { ... shift { k: (Int=>Int) => // the continuation k will be th...

I think I understand (in general) what shift and reset mean. However I do not understand why they are named so ? What do shift and reset as Delimited Continuation primitives have to do with "shift"...

Is anyone using delimited continuations for Haskell development, specifically web development? I find the topic fascinating I need something more accessible than what I've been studying. Here are ...
