<p>Continuation-passing style (CPS) is Guile’s principal intermediate
|
||
|
|
language, bridging the gap between languages for people and languages
|
||
|
|
for machines. CPS gives a name to every part of a program: every
|
||
|
|
control point, and every intermediate value. This makes it an excellent
|
||
|
|
medium for reasoning about programs, which is the principal job of a
|
||
|
|
compiler.
