Rust Iterator Items An exploration of syntax

Learnt a lot about programming language syntax and design trade offs from this one.

“I believe such a feature in Rust would be desirable. This might not give you the full flexibility of writing impl Iterator by hand, but I think it would cover the vast majority of cases people care about and are now stopped by the sudden complexity hurdle.”
