    In the Dojo Toolkit's Deferred API as of version 1.5, a consumer-only promise object represents a read-only view. [7] In Alice ML, futures provide a read-only view, whereas a promise contains both a future and the ability to resolve the future [8] [9] In .NET System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> represents a read-only view.

    In Python, a generator can be thought of as an iterator that contains a frozen stack frame. Whenever next() is called on the iterator, Python resumes the frozen frame, which executes normally until the next yield statement is reached. The generator's frame is then frozen again, and the yielded value is returned to the caller.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promise_problem

    In computational complexity theory, a promise problem is a generalization of a decision problem where the input is promised to belong to a particular subset of all possible inputs. [1] Unlike decision problems, the yes instances (the inputs for which an algorithm must return yes ) and no instances do not exhaust the set of all inputs.

    E—uses promises to preclude deadlocks; ECMAScript—uses promises for asynchronous operations; Eiffel—through its SCOOP mechanism based on the concepts of Design by Contract; Elixir—dynamic and functional meta-programming aware language running on the Erlang VM. Erlang—uses synchronous or asynchronous message passing with no shared memory
