Comment (by dkrenn):

 Replying to [comment:102 jdemeyer]:
 > Why is this moved to `data_structures`? I don't think that "lazy list"
 is a data structure. And I don't want `data_structures` to become yet
 another "misc".

 I don't know about what the motivation of moving it was, but I disagree
 that it is *not* a data structure. `list` is a data structure for sure, so
 a variant of it, namely our lazy list, is it as well.
 The wikipedia says on "data structure" in its first sentence:
     In computer science, a data structure is a particular way of
 organizing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently.
 That's what we have, haven't we?

 Why do you think it is not a data structure?
