Re: [swift-evolution] Proposal: CollectionType.cycle property for an infinite sequence

I have never tried to implement a “stream” in Swift, so I am not sure if there is an easy way to do it…. but I don’t see a collection of type stream as I have in Scala. http://www.scala-lang.org/api/current/index.html#scala.collection.immutable.Stream

Re: [swift-evolution] Proposal: CollectionType.cycle property for an infinite sequence

Hi Kevin, The issue I was seeing was because AnySequence uses the protocol extension on SequenceType for its implementations of filter/suffix/prefix etc. So I don't think it's taking into account any implementations of those on the base sequence's type. The problem basically comes down to this:

[swift-evolution] Proposal: CollectionType.cycle property for an infinite sequence

## Introduction Add a new property `cycle` to CollectionType that returns an infinite SequenceType that yields the elements of the collection in a loop. ## Motivation It's sometimes useful to be able to have an infinite sequence. For example, `CollectionOfOne(x).cycle` could be used to have
