You make a very strong case that Lisp is very feeble at

I somehow don’t believe you :-)
Ruby isn't feeble, so data like this is fine:
shall we begin?
or lotus135? 1984 times!
The 3 stooges: COBOL,LISP,FORTRAN.
3.14, si11y L00KING
Extracting the unsigned integers:
IO.readlines('data').map{|s| s.scan(/\d+/).map{|s| s.to_i}}
==>[[], [135, 1984], [3], [3, 14, 11, 0]]
Just take the program I posted before and replace
(.split % "\\s")
with
(re-seq #"\d+" %)
Now that I was so kind to give you what you asked for, you will
probably do the same for me and show me your Ruby code, in which you
define a variable that contains the Fibonacci sequence.
(def fibs (lazy-cat [0 1] (map + fibs (drop 1 fibs))))
(nth fibs 70) ==> 190392490709135
One requirement is that when you look at the n'th fib the results up
to n must be memoized, so that nothing needs to be calculated again
when you ask for a fib between 0 and n. And when you ask for the n+1'th
it will start the calculation right from point n.
Example:
user> (time (nth fibs 900))
"Elapsed time: 16.898726 msecs"
user> (time (nth fibs 901))
"Elapsed time: 0.268603 msecs"
