The iterative_methods project implements iterative methods and associated utilities in Rust.

It currently demonstrates the following techniques we find powerful:

• Implement iterative methods as StreamingIterators.
• Implement iterative methods utilities as generic adaptors of StreamingIterators.
• Test non-trivial methods via property testing (quickcheck).
• Generic output via streaming yaml

If you're not familiar with iterative methods or what the above mean, start here.

Future plans:

• Expand/stabilize design
• Add more iterative methods
• Add higher level utilities
• Add simple function call interface to methods.

Stability/evolution:

• The design is actively evolving, breakage is to be expected everywhere. Feedback welcome! email us or open issues on the repo.
• Some utilities (e.g., take_until) probably belong elsewhere (e.g., {Streaming}Iterator) and so might migrate entirely.
