No doubt some of you have seen the Draft S07-iterators, but for those
who haven't:
http://svn.pugscode.org/pugs/docs/Perl6/Spec/S07-iterators.pod
I have some questions here (mostly directed to Daniel Ruoso, but
others can feel free to chip in if they have thoughts).
Should laziness/eagerness be a property of the operator?
You write "The iterator role represents the lazy access to a list".
Why only lazy access?
You write: my $item = =$foo;
Does that get one item from the iterator object?
You specify that the .Iterator() object on something that does List
will return the appropriate iterator. I changed it to be .iterator() (so that
it's lowercase like all the other List.whatever() functions); what's the
function signature?
method iterator() {...}
...or are there parameters?
:)
