# Iterator<E> class

An interface for getting items, one at a time, from an object.

The for-in construct transparently uses `Iterator` to test for the end of the iteration, and to get each item (or element).

If the object iterated over is changed during the iteration, the behavior is unspecified.

The `Iterator` is initially positioned before the first element. Before accessing the first element the iterator must thus be advanced using moveNext to point to the first element. If no element is left, then moveNext returns false, current returns `null`, and all further calls to moveNext will also return false.

A typical usage of an Iterator looks as follows:

    var it = obj.iterator;
    while (it.moveNext()) {
      use(it.current);
    }
