Combining virtual sequences<br>or, Sequential Fun with Macros<br>or, How to Implement Clojure-Like Pseudo-Sequences with Poor Man’s Laziness in a Predominantly Imperative Language

This technical article discusses implementing Clojure-like pseudo-sequences with lazy evaluation in predominantly imperative languages. The author draws inspiration from functional programming concepts in Clojure and Haskell, demonstrating how to create virtual sequences using Common Lisp macros. The content covers sequence abstraction, iteration patterns, and code generation techniques for creating memory-efficient sequences without constructing full data structures.
