Hello,
I've been using Python for years but only recently started using
Stackless. One of the current concurrency topics is the paper written
by Simon Peyton-Jones about STM in which he presents a concurrency
problem and provides Haskell code to solve it. The Erlang list then
included a version in Erlang demonstrating a shorter, and perhaps more
readable, solution to the problem. I'm including my Stackless version
as a comparison and also wish feedback on my use of Stackless since it
was my first stab at it. I was thrilled to see I could schedule 10K
elves without a problem.
The top of the Erlang code has a good description of the problem.
