Is lazy evaluation of infinite series possible?

I am just learning Pharo (taking the MOOC actually!) and am wondering whether it is possible to model formal power series. I have done this in Haskell quite easily and efficiently, but struggled to do it in Python without real success. It requires one to perform operations on an infinite stream (such as multiplying two infinite power series). One then only evaluates the terms as they are needed, i.e., lazily. Any thoughts?
