;;; scons.ss
;;; a stream-construction facility
;;; The scons special form performs a cons, suspending the cdr field
;;; by enclosing it in a procedure of no arguments. scdr tests to see
;;; if the cdr is a procedure, and if so, invokes it. scar is provided
;;; for symmetry; it is just car.
;;; The function stream-ref is simply list-ref defined in terms of
;;; scdr and scar.
;;; factlist and fiblist are two infinite streams.
;;; Try (stream-ref factlist 10) or (stream-ref fiblist 20).
;;; scons could easily suspend the car field as well. This would
;;; implement the lazy cons of Friedman & Wise.
