# `Agent` is inspired by Clojure's [agent](http://clojure.org/agents)
# function. An agent is a shared, mutable variable providing independent,
# uncoordinated, *asynchronous* change of individual values. Best used when
# the value will undergo frequent, complex updates. Suitable when the result
# of an update does not need to be known immediately. `Agent` is (mostly)
# functionally equivalent to Clojure's agent, except where the runtime
# prevents parity.
#
# Agents are reactive, not autonomous - there is no imperative message loop
# and no blocking receive. The state of an Agent should be itself immutable
# and the `#value` of an Agent is always immediately available for reading by
# any thread without any messages, i.e. observation does not require
# cooperation or coordination.
#
# Agent action dispatches are made using the various `#send` methods. These
# methods always return immediately. At some point later, in another thread,
# the following will happen:
#
# 1. The given `action` will be applied to the state of the Agent and the
# `args`, if any were supplied.
# 2. The return value of `action` will be passed to the validator lambda,
# if one has been set on the Agent.
# 3. If the validator succeeds or if no validator was given, the return value
# of the given `action` will become the new `#value` of the Agent. See
# `#initialize` for details.
# 4. If any observers were added to the Agent, they will be notified. See
# `#add_observer` for details.
# 5. If during the `action` execution any other dispatches are made (directly
# or indirectly), they will be held until after the `#value` of the Agent
# has been changed.
#
# If any exceptions are thrown by an action function, no nested dispatches
# will occur, and the exception will be cached in the Agent itself. When an
# Agent has errors cached, any subsequent interactions will immediately throw
# an exception, until the agent's errors are cleared. Agent errors can be
# examined with `#error` and the agent restarted with `#restart`.
#
# The actions of all Agents get interleaved amongst threads in a thread pool.
# At any point in time, at most one action for each Agent is being executed.
# Actions dispatched to an agent from another single agent or thread will
# occur in the order they were sent, potentially interleaved with actions
# dispatched to the same agent from other sources. The `#send` method should
# be used for actions that are CPU limited, while the `#send_off` method is
# appropriate for actions that may block on IO.
#
# Unlike in Clojure, `Agent` cannot participate in `Concurrent::TVar` transactions.
#
# ## Example
#
# ```
# def next_fibonacci(set = nil)
# return [0, 1] if set.nil?
# set + [set[-2..-1].reduce{|sum,x| sum + x }]
# end
#
# # create an agent with an initial value
# agent = Concurrent::Agent.new(next_fibonacci)
#
# # send a few update requests
# 5.times do
# agent.send{|set| next_fibonacci(set) }
# end
#
# # wait for them to complete
# agent.await
#
# # get the current value
# agent.value #=> [0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8]
# ```
#
# ## Observation
#
# Agents support observers through the {Concurrent::Observable} mixin module.
# Notification of observers occurs every time an action dispatch returns and
# the new value is successfully validated. Observation will *not* occur if the
# action raises an exception, if validation fails, or when a {#restart} occurs.
#
# When notified the observer will receive three arguments: `time`, `old_value`,
# and `new_value`. The `time` argument is the time at which the value change
# occurred. The `old_value` is the value of the Agent when the action began
# processing. The `new_value` is the value to which the Agent was set when the
# action completed. Note that `old_value` and `new_value` may be the same.
# This is not an error. It simply means that the action returned the same
# value.
#
# ## Nested Actions
#
# It is possible for an Agent action to post further actions back to itself.
# The nested actions will be enqueued normally then processed *after* the
# outer action completes, in the order they were sent, possibly interleaved
# with action dispatches from other threads. Nested actions never deadlock
# with one another and a failure in a nested action will never affect the
# outer action.
#
# Nested actions can be called using the Agent reference from the enclosing
# scope or by passing the reference in as a "send" argument. Nested actions
# cannot be post using `self` from within the action block/proc/lambda; `self`
# in this context will not reference the Agent. The preferred method for
# dispatching nested actions is to pass the Agent as an argument. This allows
# Ruby to more effectively manage the closing scope.
#
# Prefer this:
#
# ```
# agent = Concurrent::Agent.new(0)
# agent.send(agent) do |value, this|
# this.send {|v| v + 42 }
# 3.14
# end
# agent.value #=> 45.14
# ```
#
# Over this:
#
# ```
# agent = Concurrent::Agent.new(0)
# agent.send do |value|
# agent.send {|v| v + 42 }
# 3.14
# end
# ```
#
# @!macro agent_await_warning
#
# **NOTE** Never, *under any circumstances*, call any of the "await" methods
# ({#await}, {#await_for}, {#await_for!}, and {#wait}) from within an action
# block/proc/lambda. The call will block the Agent and will always fail.
# Calling either {#await} or {#wait} (with a timeout of `nil`) will
# hopelessly deadlock the Agent with no possibility of recovery.
