Streams are ;; implemented as delayed evaluation of cons cells. ;; ;; Functions defined in `seq.el' can also take a stream as input. ;; ;; streams could be created from any sequential input data: ;; - sequences, making operation on them lazy ;; - a set of 2 forms (first and rest), making it easy to represent infinite sequences ;; - buffers (by character) ;; - buffers (by line) ;; - buffers (by page) ;; - IO streams ;; - orgmode table cells ;; - ... ;; ;; All functions are prefixed with "stream-". ;; All functions are tested in test/automated/stream-tests.el ;; ;; Here is an example implementation of the Fibonacci numbers ;; implemented as in infinite stream: ;; ;; (defun fib (a b) ;; (stream-cons a (fib b (+ a b)))) ;; (fib 0 1) ;;; Code: (eval-when-compile (require 'cl-lib)) (require 'seq) (require 'thunk) (eval-and-compile (defconst stream--identifier '--stream-- "Symbol internally used to identify streams."))
