Comment (by mantepse):

 > What operations are allowed on streams then? (I assume point-wise
 addition; what do you need multiplication for?)

 Well, I really want to keep them relatively general, mainly because I
 won't gain anything by requiring certain operation.  I do think that it
 makes sense to require that the coefficients are from a (possibly
 noncommutative) ring.  I can't think of any applications where we do not
 have this.  I need the recognisable zero to be able to do the trick with
 recursive definition.

 > So your streams seem to be a more specialized than my sequences. In this
 way, would it be an option for you that streams have sequences as a base
 class?

 Yes, certainly.

 > Is a stream of you a Sage `Element`? (I would guess so).

 Yes.
