In the traceback I get for this: (take 94 (lazy-seq (cons 0 (lazy-seq (cons 1 (map + fibs (rest fibs))))))) ArithmeticException integer overflow clojure.lang.Numbers.throwIntOverflow (Numbers.java:1388) the error occurs in clojure.lang.Numbers$LongOps.add (Numbers.java:430) So the fact that it's called an *integer* overflow is deceptive. The 94th fibonacci number is greater than Long/MAX_VALUE, so it overflows. It is using longs. -- Ben Wolfson "Human kind has used its intelligence to vary the flavour of drinks, which may be sweet, aromatic, fermented or spirit-based. ...
