OK, so @marcandre is interested in.  I re-wrote the description in English.

=begin
So I wanted some real benefit of being lazy.  I wrote a Leibniz formula:

  def leibniz(n)
    (0..Float::INFINITY).lazy.with_index {|i, j| (-1 ** j) / (2*i+1).to_f }.take(n).reduce(:+)
  end

But it doesn't work (well, it does, indeed. It just doesn't stop working).  I got frustrated.
How about it?  Don't you feel it nifty?

Of course I can wait for the release next to 2.0.0.
