Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

Documentation

The static delimited continuation operators shift and reset.

Shift/Reset - Dynamically scoped shift/reset

 
(require-extension shift-reset)

A "stuck on control" situation, a 'shift' without an enclosing 'reset', is an error.

reset

[syntax] (reset EXPRESSION ...)

Evaluate the body EXPRESSION ... with a delimited continuation. The body will contain one or more instances of (shift ...).

shift

[syntax] (shift PC-TAG EXPRESSION)

Within the scope of EXPRESSION PC-TAG is bound to the reified partial continuation delimited by the enclosing (reset ...). Provide a value to the partial continuation using the form (PC-TAG <something>).

reset-values

[syntax] (reset-values EXPRESSION ...)

Multiple value return version of (reset ...). The body will contain one or more instances of (shift-values ...).

shift-values

[syntax] (shift-values PC-TAG EXPRESSION)

Multiple value return version of (shift ...). Provide a value to the partial continuation using the form (PC-TAG <something> ...).

BShift/BReset - Statically scoped shift/reset

 
(require-extension bshift-breset)

Invalid delimited continuations, what RC-TAG below represents, and stuck on control will generate an error

breset

[syntax] (breset RC-TAG EXPRESSION ...)

Evaluate the body EXPRESSION ... with a delimited continuation named RC-TAG. The body will contain one or more instances of (bshift RC-TAG ...).

bshift

[syntax] (bshift RC-TAG PC-TAG EXPRESSION)

Within the scope of EXPRESSION PC-TAG is bound to the reified partial continuation delimited by the enclosing (breset RC-TAG ...). Provide a value to the partial continuation using the form (PC-TAG <something>).

breset-values

[syntax] (breset-values RC-TAG EXPRESSION ...)

Multiple value return version of (breset ...). The body will contain one or more instances of (bshift-values RC-TAG ...).

bshift-values

[syntax] (bshift-values RC-TAG PC-TAG EXPRESSION)

Multiple value return version of (bshift ...). Provide a value to the partial continuation using the form (PC-TAG <something> ...).

Range

 
(require-extension range)

range

[syntax] (range RC-TAG FROM VALUE STEP TO?)

The value of the delimited continuation RC-TAG ranges over the set of values specified by the state generation procedure suite. For use with (breset ...)

FROM
Zero argument procedure, returning the initial state
VALUE
Single argument procedure, of the state, returning the value of the state
STEP
Single argument procedure, of the state, returning the next state
TO?
Single argument procedure, of the state, returning {{#t) when the range is complete

range

[syntax] (range RC-TAG FROM [STEP] TO)

The value of the delimited continuation RC-TAG ranges over the number interval [FROM TO], by STEP. The increment is 1 when missing. For use with (breset ...).

Reflect/Reify - Monads

 
(require-extension reflect-reify)

The Monad example from Filinski, POPL '94

define-unit

[syntax] (define-unit KIND BODY ...)

Expands to (define (KIND-unit obj) BODY ...).

define-bind

[syntax] (define-bind KIND BODY ...)

Expands to (define (KIND-bind monad func) BODY ...).

reflect

[syntax] (reflect KIND MONAD)

Extract value from MONAD. Plays the role of Haskell '<-'.

reflect-values

[syntax] (reflect-values KIND MONAD)

Extract value from MONAD. Plays the role of Haskell '<-'.

reify

[syntax] (reify KIND EXPRESSION)

Return result of EXPRESSION as a monad.

reify-values

[syntax] (reify-values KIND EXPRESSION)

Return result of EXPRESSION as a monad.

GShift/GReset - Generalized shift/reset

 
(require-extension gshift-greset)

The generalized shift and reset operator family from How to remove a dynamic prompt: static and dynamic delimited continuation operators are equally expressible

greset

[syntax] (greset HR E)

Reset parameterized by the H Reset procedure HR.

gshift

[syntax] (gshift HS F E)

Shift parameterized by the H Shift procedure HS.

hr-stop

[procedure] (hr-stop V)

H Reset Stop.

hs-stop

[procedure] (hs-stop V)

H Shift Stop

hr-prop

[procedure] (hr-prop V)

H Reset Propagate.

hs-prop

[procedure] (hs-prop V)

H Shift Propagate.

h-compose

[procedure] (h-compose F X)

Returns the composition of F and X as an h-datatype.

h-value

[procedure] (h-value V)

Returns the value of V as an h-datatype.

h-datatype?

[procedure] (h-datatype? OBJECT)

Is OBJECT an h-datatype?

h-cases

[syntax] (h-cases E ((F X) ON-h-EXPR) (V ON-V-EXPR))

Deconstructs the h-datatype E, binding F & X for an evaluation of the ON-h-EXPR and V for an evaluation of the ON-V-EXPR.

Usage

See individual sections.

Examples

 
(use shift-reset srfi-41 srfi-45)

(define (my-list->stream list)
  (iteration-procedure->stream
   (lambda (receiver)
     (for-each receiver list))))

(define (iteration-procedure->stream iteration-procedure)
  (reset
    (iteration-procedure
     (lambda (element)
       (shift continue-iteration
         (stream-cons element (lazy (continue-iteration (void)))))))
    stream-null))
