Recursive data structures like lists or trees can be harvested using algebras and catamorphisms. But in order to support sustainable programming ecosystems, we need to grow trees. That's where coalgebras and anamorphisms prove their usefulness. Given a seed value, an anamorphism can produce a recursive data structure. Interestingly, we can also produce infinite data structures this way.
