GLOSSARY

iterable object

An iterable object is an object which can be wrapped by an Iterator::Flex::Base based iterator, and which has one or more of the following:

• __iter__ or iter methods

• __next__ or next methods

• an overloaded <> operator

  These should return the next item.

• an overloaded &{} operator

  This should return a code reference which returns the next item. The coderef will be called as

    $next = $coderef->( $obj )

• an overloaded @{} operator

  This should return a code reference which returns an array reference. The coderef will be called as

    $next = $coderef->( $obj )

Additionally, if the object has the following methods, they are used to implement the prev and current capabilities.

• __prev__ or prev

• __current__ or current

iterable thing

It may be one of the following:

• an "iterable object"

• a coderef, which must return the next element in the iteration.
