cycle ties a finite list into a circular one, or equivalently, the infinite repetition of the original list. It is the identity on infinite lists.

Examples

>>> cycle []
*** Exception: Prelude.cycle: empty list

>>> take 10 (cycle [42])
[42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42]

>>> take 10 (cycle [2, 5, 7])
[2,5,7,2,5,7,2,5,7,2]

>>> take 1 (cycle (42 : undefined))
[42]
