 ## Concurrency

-V's model of concurrency is very similar to Go's. To run `foo()` concurrently, just
+```v
-call it with `go foo()`. Right now, it launches the function on a new system
+import math
-thread. Soon coroutines and a scheduler will be implemented.
+
+fn p(a f64, b f64) { // ordinary function without return value
+	c := math.sqrt(a * a + b * b)
+	println(c)
+}
+
+fn main() {
+	go p(3, 4)
+	// p will be run in parallel thread
+}
+```
+
+Sometimes it is necessary to wait until a parallel thread has finished. This can
+be done by assigning a *handle* to the started thread and calling the `wait()` method
+to this handle later:
+
+```v
+import math
+
+fn p(a f64, b f64) { // ordinary function without return value
+	c := math.sqrt(a * a + b * b)
+	println(c) // prints `5`
+}
+
+fn main() {
+	h := go p(3, 4)
+	// p() runs in parallel thread
+	h.wait()
+	// p() has definitely finished
+}
+```
+
+This approach can also be used to get a return value from a function that is run in a
+parallel thread. There is no need to modify the function itself to be able to call it
+concurrently.
+
+```v
+import math { sqrt }
+
+fn get_hypot(a f64, b f64) f64 { //       ordinary function returning a value
+	c := sqrt(a * a + b * b)
+	return c
+}
+
+fn main() {
+	g := go get_hypot(54.06, 2.08) // spawn thread and get handle to it
+	h1 := get_hypot(2.32, 16.74) //   do some other calculation here
+	h2 := g.wait() //                 get result from spawned thread
+	println('Results: $h1, $h2') //   prints `Results: 16.9, 54.1`
+}
+```
+
+If there is a large number of tasks that do not return a value it might be easier to manage
+them using a wait group. However, for this approach the function(s) called concurrently have
+to be designed with this wait group in mind:

 Usage of these methods and properties in production is not recommended -
 algorithms based on them are often subject to race conditions. Use `select` instead.
 
+### Shared Objects
+
 Data can be exchanged between a coroutine and the calling thread via a shared variable.
 Such variables should be created as `shared` and passed to the coroutine as such, too.
 The underlying `struct` contains a hidden *mutex* that allows locking concurrent access
