hi again everyone, I am giving a tech talk soon, and aspire to show an example from Chapter 28 of RWH on the STM monad. My example is just a watered down version of the "transfer wealth" example in the book. However it is single threaded. Q: is there an "easy" example of illustrating 2 threads that do something (trivial is fine)? I believe that the book constructs a thread library/manager of sorts but I wonder if there is something easier. Though I'm not sure how to square this with my example, for now I'd love to see an example of starting up 2 threads that do something and block until a keystroke is entered in the terminal. My apologies if this is too vague or too much "can you do my homework?" ! thanks Michael -- ---------------------- Michael Easter http://codetojoy.blogspot.com: Putting the thrill back in blog http://youtube.com/ocitv -> Fun people doing serious software engineering
