Basic Examples  (2)

Protect part of a computation from early termination:

Use AbortProtect to ensure an assignment is made:

Although the computation returned $Aborted, x was assigned the value of the computation:

Without the AbortProtect, the assignment would not have been made:

Scope  (1)

Make sure that an iteration is finished in a time-constrained computation:

Without AbortProtect, typically imax is updated, but not x:

Properties & Relations  (5)

CheckAbort enables and detects aborts even if enclosed within AbortProtect:

While the computation inside the CheckAbort is terminated, AbortProtect runs to completion:

An enclosing AbortProtect is overridden by TimeConstrained:

While code inside the TimeConstrained is terminated, AbortProtect runs to completion:

A nested AbortProtect can block the action of TimeConstrained:

An enclosing AbortProtect is overridden by MemoryConstrained:

While code inside the MemoryConstrained is terminated, AbortProtect runs to completion:

A nested AbortProtect can block the action of MemoryConstrained:
