For Fibers we have got classic example: generating of Fibonacci numbers fib = Fiber.new do x, y = 0, 1 loop do Fiber.yield y x,y = y,x+y end end Why do we need Fibers here? I can rewrite this with just the same Proc (closure, actually) def clsr x, y = 0, 1 Proc.new do x, y = y, x + y x end end So 10.times { puts fib.resume } and prc = clsr 10.times { puts prc.call } will return just the same result. So what are the advantages of fibers. What kind of stuff I can write with Fibers I can't do with lambdas and other cool Ruby features?
