Quotations
446 ;;Quote: Linda has four basic operations: eval (create process), out (create tuple), in (remove tuple), rd (copy tuple)
446 ;;Quote: a Linda tuple is a series of typed fields, e.g., strings and numbers
447 ;;Quote: Linda specifies a tuple by a template; values match exactly while parameters match the data type
447+ ;;Quote: Linda waits until there is a matching tuple for an 'in' statement
447 ;;Quote: if multiple tuples for a Linda 'in' statement, one is returned nondeterministically
448 ;;Quote: parallel processes usually don't care what happens to results; an asynchronous 'out' statement is better than a monitor call
