Won't this make implementing sequences more complex? Sequences are currently dead easy to implement, and to implement in an ad-hoc way via AnySequence(body:), how would that be done under this required indexing scheme? I just feel like things are easiest if Sequence is simply tweaked to require that it's iterators must be non-destructive, as implementing them will be just as easy, at which point it's just a matter of separating out which methods take Sequences and which take Iterators. _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
