//! Composable external iterators
//!
//! # The `Iterator` trait
//!
//! This module defines Rust's core iteration trait. The `Iterator` trait has one
//! unimplemented method, `next`. All other methods are derived through default
//! methods to perform operations such as `zip`, `chain`, `enumerate`, and `fold`.
//!
//! The goal of this module is to unify iteration across all containers in Rust.
//! An iterator can be considered as a state machine which is used to track which
//! element will be yielded next.
//!
//! There are various extensions also defined in this module to assist with various
//! types of iteration, such as the `DoubleEndedIterator` for iterating in reverse,
//! the `FromIterator` trait for creating a container from an iterator, and much
//! more.
//!
//! ## Rust's `for` loop
//!
//! The special syntax used by rust's `for` loop is based around the `Iterator`
//! trait defined in this module. For loops can be viewed as a syntactical expansion
//! into a `loop`, for example, the `for` loop in this example is essentially
//! translated to the `loop` below.
//!
//! ```
//! let values = vec![1, 2, 3];
//!
//! // "Syntactical sugar" taking advantage of an iterator
//! for &x in values.iter() {
//!     println!("{}", x);
//! }
//!
//! // Rough translation of the iteration without a `for` iterator.
//! let mut it = values.iter();
//! loop {
//!     match it.next() {
//!         Some(&x) => {
//!             println!("{}", x);
//!         }
//!         None => { break }
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! This `for` loop syntax can be applied to any iterator over any type.
