thx! and thank you for showing it to me first. :)
For anyone finding this later, list_util's iterate/3 makes it quite natural to create infinite, lazy lists:
:- use_module(library(list_util), [iterate/3]).
fib(X) :- iterate(fib,0-1,X).
fib(A-B,B-C,A) :- C is A+B.
Can be used like this:
?- fib(X), length(A,15),append(A,B,X), writeln(A).
[0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377]
