Continuations: The Swiss Army Knife of Flow Control with Jonathan Bartlett

Topic: In this talk we will discuss “continuations”, a flow-control construct from which nearly every other flow control structure can be created. Try/catch, cooperative threading, generators, and even prolog-like logic control structures can be built from this single tool.
Speaker: Jonathan Bartlett is a computer programmer, educator, and writer. His books include “Programming from the Ground Up”, “New Programmers Start Here”, and “Building Scalable Web Applications Using the Cloud”.
