==Examples==
Nearly all [[programming language]]s in common use today are strict. Examples include [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]], [[Java (programming language)|Java]], [[Perl]] (all versions, i.e. through version 5 and version 7
Some strict programming languages include features that mimic laziness. Raku, formerly known as Perl 6, has lazy lists.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Raku Programming/Lazy Lists and Feeds - Wikibooks, open books for an open world|url=https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Raku_Programming/Lazy_Lists_and_Feeds|access-date=2021-02-09|website=en.wikibooks.org}}</ref> Python has generator functions.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Lott |first1=Steven |title=Functional Python Programming. |date=2015 |publisher=Packt Publishing |___location=Birmingham, UK |isbn=978-1-78439-699-2 |page=35 |quote=a generator function is non-strict.
