Infinite Streams with Elixir
# Elixir has lazily evaluated enumerable objects that allow you
# to work with enumerable objects like lists either only as needed
# or infinitely.
# Start up iex to play around
$ iex
# Typical enumeration is done eagerly where the result is computed ASAP
iex> Enum.map(1..10, fn i -> i * 2 end)
