Using the specified <list unfold>, the definitions are

``
map f     = unfold null (f . head) tail
iterate f = unfold (const False) id f

For `iterate`, the stop predicate is always false and the output is the current state itself. Its transition is `f`, so the original seed is emitted before the first application of `f`.
