::::: I'm not seeking to assign any blame obviously, I just didn't know (then) how to interpret your intent and took it to the other side, I guess. But what you're saying makes perfect sense. Thanks, -- [[User:WillNess|WillNess]] ([[User talk:WillNess|talk]]) 19:37, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
:::::: No problems -- I just wanted to clarify how things got to where they are, and even though I did many edits the result is not something I'm too happy with... The original --simple-- code that I had in a way that nicely demonstrates the similarities between laziness, threads, and generators is now stashed in the obscurely named "[[Sequence_of_primes_by_Trial_Division#Racket|Sequence of primes by Trial Division]]" -- the sieve code is the results of many butcherings of that code, once there were complaints that the simple version is not really an "Eratosthenes Sieve" (I'm still not convinced, the rules sound like something that was retrofitted to the greek guy). --[[User:Elibarzilay|Elibarzilay]] ([[User talk:Elibarzilay|talk]]) 01:02, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
:::::::About the difference, maybe you'll find these old lazy-Lisp definitions [http://www.seas.gwu.edu/~rhyspj/cs3221/lab8/henderson.pdf with rem (pg 3), 1976] and [http://3e8.org/pub/scheme/doc/lisp-pointers/v1i4/p23-clinger.pdf with (+) (pg 2), 1987] interesting. -- [[User:WillNess|WillNess]] ([[User talk:WillNess|talk]]) 11:56, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
