"""Abstract supertype of [[categories|Category]] whose elements may be iterated. Iterable categories are often called _streams_. A stream need not be finite, but its elements must be countable. That is, for any given element of the stream, every iterator of the stream must eventually return the element, even if the iterator itself is not exhaustable. A stream may have null elements. That is, an iterator for the stream may produce the value [[null]] one or more times. For every non-null `element` of a given stream `it`, the expression `element in it` must evaluate to `true`. Thus, a stream is a category of its non-null elements. A given stream might not have a well-defined order, and so the order in which elements are produced by the stream's iterator may not be _stable_. That is, the order may be different for two different iterators of the stream. However, a stream has a well-defined set of elements, and any two iterators for an immutable finite stream should eventually return the same elements. Furthermore, any two iterators for an immutable finite stream should eventually return exactly the same number of elements, which must be the [[size]] of the stream. A given stream may not be _finite_, in which case an iterator for the stream is never exhaustible, and certain operations of this interface either never terminate or result in an [[AssertionError]]. It may not, in general, be possible to even determine if an `Iterable` is finite. The type `Iterable<Element,Null>`, usually abbreviated `{Element*}`, represents a possibly-empty iterable container. The type `Iterable<Element,Nothing>`, usually abbreviated `{Element+}`, represents a nonempty iterable container. A value list in braces produces a new instance of `Iterable`: {String+} words = { "hello", "world" }; An instance of `Iterable` may be iterated using a `for` loop: for (c in "hello world") { ... } Comprehensions provide a convenient syntax for transforming streams: {Integer+} lengths = { for (w in words) w.size }; `Iterable` and its subtypes define various operations that return other iterable objects. Such operations come in two flavors: - _Lazy_ operations return a *view* of the receiving iterable object. If the underlying iterable object is mutable, then changes to the underlying object will be reflected in the resulting view. Lazy operations are usually efficient, avoiding memory allocation or iteration of the receiving iterable object. - _Eager_ operations return an immutable object. If the receiving iterable object is mutable, changes to this object will not be reflected in the resulting immutable object. Eager operations are often expensive, involving memory allocation and iteration of the receiving iterable object. Lazy operations are generally preferred, because they can be efficiently chained. For example: string.filter((c) => c.letter||c.digit) .map(Character.uppercased) is much less expensive than: string.select((c) => c.letter||c.digit) .collect(Character.uppercased) Furthermore, it is always easy to produce a new immutable iterable object given the view produced by a lazy operation. For example: [ *string.filter((c) => c.letter||c.digit) .map(Character.uppercased) ] However, there are certain scenarios where an eager operation is more useful, more convenient, or no more expensive than a lazy operation, including: - sorting operations, for example [[sort]], which are eager by nature, - operations which result in a subset or subrange of the receiving stream, where structural sharing would or could result in unnecessary memory retention. Certain operations come in both lazy and eager flavors, for example: - [[map]] vs [[collect]], - [[filter]] vs [[select]], - [[List.sublist]] vs [[List.measure]]. Lazy operations normally return an instance of `Iterable`, or even a [[List]], [[Map]], or [[Set]]. Eager operations usually return a [[sequence|Sequential]]. The method [[sequence]] materializes the current elements of a stream into a sequence. Unlike [[Collection]], `Iterable` does not define or require any form of [[value equality|Object.equals]], and some streams do not support value equality. Therefore, the use of the `==` operator to compare generic iterables is extremely fragile and strongly discouraged.""" see (`interface Collection`) by ("Gavin") shared interface Iterable<out Element, out Absent=Null> satisfies Category given Absent satisfies Null { "An iterator for the elements belonging to this stream." shared formal Iterator<Element> iterator(); "Determines if the stream is empty, that is to say, if the iterator returns no elements." shared default Boolean empty => iterator().next() is Finished; "The number of elements returned by the [[iterator]] of this stream, if the iterator terminates.
