Continuation (call/cc) in Scheme

Question

I need to understand Continuations in Scheme for my upcoming exams and I have no idea about continuations at all. Can anyone please suggest me sources of how to go about learning continuations?

Answer 1

I find this short draft tutorial a useful starting point. Once you grasp those very basics, a more extensive, Scheme-specific coverage is here; for a broader purview, wikipedia can be of some help (and has a few good links at the end).

Answer 2

I wrote this short article to make myself more acquainted with continuations. You may find it useful. I have also collected some links there.
