# The above code creates the sequence only once per program run and
# then keeps it around in the $fibs global; there's no provision to
# set $fibs again thus it has to be protected with Keep() from being
# deleted. While this works, and is arguably efficient since multiple
# calls to fib() do not need to recalculate the stream, it also means
# that the whole stream up to the highest $n ever calculated are kept
# in memory until program exit.
# Here is an alternative definition that doesn't keep the stream tied
# to a global, but instead returns a fresh copy each time fibs() is
# called:
sub fibs {
my $fibs;
$fibs = cons bigint(1), cons bigint(1),
lazy { stream_zip_with \&add, $fibs, rest $fibs };
$fibs
}
# Note that while it creates a reference cycle, it won't leak, as the
# cycle is broken by stream_zip_with weakening its arguments, which we
# don't protect here (we do not use a Keep() wrapper).
# Here's a variant that relies on self-referencing the subroutine (a
# package variable) instead of mutating a lexical variable:
sub fibs2 {
cons bigint(1), cons bigint(1), lazy {
my $fibs = fibs2();
stream_zip_with \&add, $fibs, rest $fibs
}
}
# But it's less efficient: it recalculates parts multiple times, as
# can be seen with CPU timings, or with the number of times that it
# calls \&add; you can check for the latter by replacing \&add with
# \&counting_add and look at $addcount before and after the
# calculation:
my $addcount = 0;
sub counting_add {
$addcount++;
$_[0] + $_[1]
}
TEST {
$addcount = 0;
# local *add = \&counting_add;
# to avoid redefinition warnings, use the glob (alternatively
# disable the warning):
local *add = *counting_add;

# This is because the recursive call to `fibs2` is creating a second,
# independently calculated sequence, which itself at the second
# position again is creating another (third), independently calculated
# sequence, etc. We want to calculate the same sequence only once,
# which `fibs` achieves.
