Coroutines and state machines are indeed equivalent. Here is an example of how to (and good reasons why) translate mechanically one into the other: http://gabriel.kerneis.info/research/files/kerneis-boutier-2... M

Rapped actually doesn't mean anything by itself. The noun is Rape, the verb rape and only in the simple 3rd person does it become rapped. (Well, not "only", but I guess you can see my point.)

It's "voilà", not "viola". Both of them are French words, but the latter means "raped" (probably not what you meant).

You should remember that the Feynman algorithm is a joke told by one of his colleagues (Murray Gell-Mann) to mock Feynman's story-telling. It has never been intended as a real algorithm that should be applied by anybody. Previously on HN
