31 One of the most interesting capabilities of
<a href=
"http://cgi.di.uoa.gr/~smaragd/fc++/" target=
"_top">FC++
</a>
32 is the generation of infinite lazy lists which are evaluated only at need.
33 The most simple example of this is
35 <pre class=
"programlisting"><span class=
"identifier">enum_from
</span><span class=
"special">(
</span><span class=
"number">1</span><span class=
"special">)
</span>
38 which returns the generator for integers
1,
2,
3,..... infinity.
40 <pre class=
"programlisting"><span class=
"identifier">take
</span><span class=
"special">(
</span><span class=
"number">4</span><span class=
"special">,
</span><span class=
"identifier">enum_from
</span><span class=
"special">(
</span><span class=
"number">1</span><span class=
"special">))
</span>
43 returns a list of the first
4 of the list.
45 <pre class=
"programlisting"><span class=
"identifier">at
</span><span class=
"special">(
</span><span class=
"identifier">enum_from
</span><span class=
"special">(
</span><span class=
"number">1</span><span class=
"special">),
</span><span class=
"number">3</span><span class=
"special">)
</span>
48 returns the fourth member using zero indexed access. Both of the lists
49 returned are lazy and only evaluated when the list members are accessed.
