Section

5.6 An Example: Streams of Primes

  of the Axiom Book says:

This is how you use generate to generate an infinite stream of primes.
\begin{axiom}
primes := generate(nextPrime,2)
\end{axiom}

but the result is an InfiniteTuple, not a Stream. The domain
InfiniteTuple is not documented in the book.

To create a stream one must explicitly write:
\begin{axiom}
primes := generate(nextPrime,2)$Stream Integer
\end{axiom}

or
\begin{axiom}
primes := construct generate(nextPrime,2)
\end{axiom}
