> (3) Is it present in python ...? I don't keep up to date with the recent developments in Python land, but the last time I used Python, it certainly didn't have first-class continuations. There used to be a project called Stackless Python that tried to add continuations to Python, but as far as I know, it has always been separate from the official Python interpreter. I don't know whether it's still alive. You may want to check http://stackless.com/ for details.
> (6) any good readable references that explain it lucidly ? If you are familiar with Python syntax, there's http://www.ps.uni-sb.de/~duchier/python/continuations.html -- and even if you aren't, you may want to have a look at it, as simple Python code is ridiculously easy to read. ~ Matthias -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
