Esoteric programming paradigms
'Concurrency-by-default' is similar to a notation I've been using to map out async service calls. It's just this: lines are terminated with "," or ";". A comma doesn't block and all comma-separated lines are executed in any order, while a semicolon blocks. Names are only usable when a semicolon is reached, and a semicolon unblocks flow when all preceding names are bound. Probably code is scoped into { } blocks. So a lambda is like "pyth_distance = {x, y; sqrt(x^2 + y^2)}". A series of async callbacks would be given by an inner block {x = call1(), y = call2(); pyth_distance(x,y)}, allowing you to do any manipulations you can do with normal code.<p>Might try making a toy language out of it eventually.
