Issue #4890 has been updated by Innokenty Mikhailov.


I've faced problems while trying to push this idea further 
so I came up with the straight C implementation of ruby code, submitted by Yutaka HARA.

Please, see this new PR https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/101

= Example
Print first 100 primes which are in form of n^2+1 

   require 'prime'
   INFINITY = 1.0 / 0
   p (1..INFINITY).lazy.map{|n| n**2+1}.select{|m| m.prime?}.take(100)

(Example taken from enumerable_lz; thanks @antimon2)

= Description

Enumerable#lazy returns an instance of Enumerable::Lazy.
This is the only method added to the existing bulit-in classes.

Lazy is a subclass of Enumerator, which includes Enumerable.
So you can call any methods of Enumerable on Lazy, except methods like
map, select, etc. are redefined as 'lazy' versions.
