[plt-scheme] FrTime and sequential evaluation
I have been playing with FrTime and I like it. However, I have a
question.
How do I enforce sequential evaluation?
In the following code the procedurer count-down doesn't behave as
expected.
;;; Definitions window
(define elapsed (new-cell 0))
(define (tick)
(- seconds
(value-now seconds)))
(define (start-timer direction)
(set-cell! elapsed (direction (value-now elapsed)
(tick))))
(define (stop-timer)
(set-cell! elapsed (value-now elapsed)))
(define (get-timer)
elapsed)
(define reset-timer
(case-lambda
[(v) (set-cell! elapsed v)]
[() (set-cell! elapsed 0)]))
(define (count-down v)
(reset-timer v)
(start-timer -))
(define (trigger-alarm)
(when (= 0 elapsed)
(stop-timer)
"wake-up"))
;; Interactions window
> (get-timer)
0
> (count-down 10)
This starts counting down from 0, when I expected to count down from 10.
Thanks,
Jaime
