I remember a guy talking about a (language or an idea) in which the basic
data element was a queue. Each function would have a queue passed to it as
an input and it would output its results as another queue. They guy's
name
was LaQuey and this was 20 years ago.
But I guess you could construct that sort of thing using any language that
allowed you to pass pointers as arguments (meaning almost all of them), so
no revelation here.
Perl does this already. Input is an array of inputs, @_. Output is an
array of values. Frequently the inputs are read via shift, which treats it
as a queue.
