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.
The page http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Concurrency_demos links to several examples of concurrency; maybe you are also interested in parallelism: http://groups.google.com/group/fa.haskell/browse_thread/thread/2aa4252637b50...
