</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>
<tt>type 'a t</tt> <br>
the type of continuations that expect a value of type <tt>'a</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>callcc f</tt> <br>
applies <tt>f</tt> to the current continuation. This copies the entire stack; hence, <tt>callcc</tt> takes time proportional to the size of the current stack.
</p>
</li>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>isolate f</tt> <br>
creates a continuation that evaluates <tt>f</tt> in an empty context. This is a constant time operation, and yields a constant size stack.
</p>
</li>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>prepend (k, f)</tt> <br>
composes a function <tt>f</tt> with a continuation <tt>k</tt> to create a continuation that first does <tt>f</tt> and then does <tt>k</tt>. This is a constant time operation.
</p>
</li>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>throw (k, v)</tt> <br>
throws value <tt>v</tt> to continuation <tt>k</tt>. This copies the entire stack of <tt>k</tt>; hence, <tt>throw</tt> takes time proportional to the size of this stack.
</p>
</li>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>throw' (k, th)</tt> <br>
a generalization of throw that evaluates <tt>th ()</tt> in the context of <tt>k</tt>. Thus, for example, if <tt>th ()</tt> raises an exception or captures another continuation, it will see <tt>k</tt>, not the current continuation.
