+## 0.1.1
+
+### Enhancements
+* Make `cons` right associative and provide an operator form `.:` for it
+* Add `null`, `tail`, `reverse`, `replicateM`, `scan` stream operations
+* Improve performance of some stream operations (`foldl`, `dropWhile`)
+
+### Bug Fixes
+* Fix the `product` operation. Earlier, it always returned 0 due to a bug
+* Fix the `last` operation, which returned `Nothing` for singleton streams

--- 'Alternative' or variants of these.
+-- | The type 'Stream m a' represents a monadic stream of values of type 'a'
+-- constructed using actions in monad 'm'. It uses a stop continuation and a
+-- yield continuation. You can consider it a rough equivalent of direct style
+-- type:
+--
+-- data Stream m a = Stop | Yield a (Maybe (Stream m a))
+--
+-- Our goal is to be able to represent finite as well infinite streams and
+-- being able to compose a large number of small streams efficiently. In
+-- addition we want to compose streams in parallel, to facilitate that we
+-- maintain a local state in an SVar that is shared across and is used for
+-- synchronization of the streams being composed.
+--
+-- Using this type, there are two ways to indicate the end of a stream, one is
+-- by calling the stop continuation and the other one is by yielding the last
+-- value along with 'Nothing' as the rest of the stream.
+--
+-- Why do we have this redundancy? Why can't we use (a -> Stream m a -> m r) as
+-- the type of the yield continuation and always use the stop continuation to
+-- indicate the end of the stream? The reason is that when we compose a large
+-- number of short or singleton streams then using the stop continuation
+-- becomes expensive, just to know that there is no next element we have to
+-- call the continuation, introducing an indirection, it seems when using CPS
+-- GHC is not able to optimize this out as efficiently as it can be in direct
+-- style because of the function call involved. In direct style it will just be
+-- a constructor check and a memory access instead of a function call. So we
+-- could use:
+--
+-- data Stream m a = Stop | Yield a (Stream m a)
+--
+-- In CPS style, when we use the 'Maybe' argument of yield to indicate the end
+-- then just like direct style we can figure out that there is no next element
+-- without a function call.
+--
+-- Then why not get rid of the stop continuation and use only yield to indicate
+-- the end of stream? The answer is, in that case to indicate the end of the
+-- stream we would have to yield at least one element so there is no way to
+-- represent an empty stream.
+--
+-- Whenever we make a singleton stream or in general when we build a stream
+-- strictly i.e. when we know all the elements of the stream in advance we can
+-- use the last yield to indicate th end of the stream, because we know in
+-- advance at the time of the last yield that the stream is ending.  We build
+-- singleton streams in the implementation of 'pure' for Applicative and Monad,
+-- and in 'lift' for MonadTrans, in these places we use yield with 'Nothing' to
+-- indicate the end of the stream. Note that, the only advantage of Maybe is
+-- when we have to build a large number of singleton or short streams. For
+-- larger streams anyway the overhead of a separate stop continuation is not
+-- significant. This could be significant when we breakdown a large stream into
+-- its elements, process them in some way and then recompose it from the
+-- pieces. Zipping streams is one such example. Zipping with streamly is the
+-- fastest among all streaming libraries.
+--
+-- However in a lazy computation we cannot know in advance that the stream is
+-- ending therefore we cannot use 'Maybe', we use the stop continuation in that
+-- case. For example when building a stream from a lazy container using a right
+-- fold.
