[Haskell-cafe] How is laziness defined?

[TJ]

I went through the entry on laziness on the wikipedia wikibook. Very
nice. The wikibook sure has grown a lot since I last visited.

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Haskell/Laziness

I believe I've got it now. By it I mean the understanding of laziness
in Haskell. Even though Haskell is, strictly speaking, not lazy, but
non-strict. "It" being but read and thought about, and not practiced,
might prove _itself_ to become Undefined as I evaluate it further. :D

Cheers,

TJ
