 <description>&lt;p&gt;An object that represents a callable routine.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Agents&lt;/em&gt; are equivalent to, but probably more powerful than, what some other languages call &lt;em&gt;delegates&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;method pointers&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;closures&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
