-# Channels
-
-Channels are a thread-safe message queue for communicating between threads,
-although they can also be used as a general-purpose queue.
-
-## Syntax
-
-The syntax to create a channel is `|:T|`, where `T` is the type that will be
-passed through the channel. You can also specify a maximum size for the
-channel, which will cause giving to block until the recipient has gotten from
-the channel if the maximum size is reached.
-
-```tomo
-channel := |:Int|
-channel:give(10)
-channel:give(20)
->> channel:get()
-= 10
->> channel:get()
-= 20
-
-small_channel := |:Int; max_size=5|
-```
-
-## Channel Methods
-
-### `give`
-
-**Description:**  
-Adds an item to the channel.

-**Parameters:**
-
-- `channel`: The channel to which the item will be added.
-- `item`: The item to add to the channel.
-- `front`: Whether to put the item at the front of the channel (as opposed to the back).

-```tomo
-func give_all(channel:|T|, items: [T], front: Bool = no -> Void)
-```
-
-**Parameters:**
-
-- `channel`: The channel to which the items will be added.
-- `items`: The array of items to add to the channel.
-- `front`: Whether to put the item at the front of the channel (as opposed to the back).
