[ARTICLE] - Squawks of the Parrot

Hi all,

Here’s an interesting article (ok, blog) from Dan Sugalski regarding
Parrot. In light of some recent discussion on continuations and
closures, I thought it relevant. And, hey, Parrot is always relevant
to Ruby IMHO. While it focuses on Perl, it’s certainly relevant to Ruby
(and Python) as well.

a = [74, 117, 115, 116, 32, 65, 110, 111, 116, 104, 101, 114, 32, 82]
a.push(117,98, 121, 32, 72, 97, 99, 107, 101, 114)
puts a.pack(“C*”)

Nope, not at all. There’s more in entry 152, and at some point I’ll
put up one with details on continuations. (152’s about closures and
their impact on performance)
