suspension
Jump to user comments
In lazy evaluation, a suspension (or in Henderson's
terminology, a "recipe") is a closure with a flag indicating
whether the expression has been evaluated or not. When the
expression is evaluated the first time, this flag is set.
Subsequent requests for the value of the expression will not
attempt to re-evaluate it.
