What happens if you don't supply a function but another type, or none?
The simplest thing is to specify it as a runtime error if the argument to shift
is not callable. You're right that there's an overhead to constructing a new
function. But it gives you flexibility that's otherwise a pain for
I don't understand this question-- do you mean whatever value the
handler function (in the example, function(k) { return k })
returns? Then no, there's no augmentation or mutation here. The
continuation is represented as an object with three methods:
Ah, I didn't know that.
It'd be cleaner
Hm. Maybe you meant to return the function to allow access to the local
variable
k through a closure? And not a fingerprint
mixed shift(function)
as I read it at first?
I don't know what you're saying, but I have already posted the semantics in
this thread. I *think* it should be pretty
