Lazy evaluation
1. Consider the following recurrence scheme described informally below. Use it to build the sequence $ 1, 2, \ldots, n!, \ldots$
4 4*5 4*5*6 ... 3 3 3 3 ---------------------- 3 3*4 3*4*5 3*4*5*6 ...
2. Define the sequence $ 1, \frac{1}{2}, \ldots, \frac{1}{k!}, \ldots $
3. Write a function which takes a sequence $ (a_n)_{n\geq 0}$ and computes the sequence $ (s_n)_{n\geq 0}$ where $ s_k = \sum_{k\geq 0} a_k$ . Use a strategy similar to that from exercise 1.
4. Write the stream of approximations of $ e$ details .
