I"EFibers are primitives for implementing light weight cooperative ;TI"Mconcurrency in Ruby. Basically they are a means of creating code blocks ;TI"Lthat can be paused and resumed, much like threads. The main difference ;TI"Nis that they are never preempted and that the scheduling must be done by ;TI"#the programmer and not the VM.;To:RDoc::Markup::BlankLine�o;	;[I"OAs opposed to other stackless light weight concurrency models, each fiber ;TI"Scomes with a small 4KB stack. This enables the fiber to be paused from deeply ;TI"2nested function calls within the fiber block.;T@o;	;[
I"NWhen a fiber is created it will not run automatically. Rather it must be ;TI"Lbe explicitly asked to run using the <code>Fiber#resume</code> method. ;TI"FThe code running inside the fiber can give up control by calling ;TI"M<code>Fiber.yield</code> in which case it yields control back to caller ;TI"3(the caller of the <code>Fiber#resume</code>).;T@o;	;[I"JUpon yielding or termination the Fiber returns the value of the last ;TI"executed expression;T@o;	;[I"For instance:;T@o:RDoc::Markup::Verbatim;[

;T;0o;	;[	I"IThe <code>Fiber#resume</code> method accepts an arbitrary number of ;TI"Jparameters, if it is the first call to <code>resume</code> then they ;TI"Jwill be passed as block arguments. Otherwise they will be the return ;TI"2value of the call to <code>Fiber.yield</code>;T@o;	;[I"
