Infinite Streams via Recursion

Streams can be built that reference themselves and thus become infinitely recursive. // factorial val fact: Stream[BigInt] = 1 #:: fact.zipWithIndex.map{case (p,x)=>p*(x+1)} fact.take(10) // (1, 1, 2, 6, 24, 120, 720, 5040, 40320, 362880) fact(24) // 620448401733239439360000 // the ...
