The ``"in"`` and ``"not in"`` operators also support iterators: ``X in iterator`` is true if X is found in the stream returned by the iterator. You'll run into obvious -problems if the iterator is infinite; ``max()``, ``min()``, and ``"not in"`` +problems if the iterator is infinite; ``max()``, ``min()`` will never return, and if the element X never appears in the stream, the -``"in"`` operator won't return either. +``"in"`` and ``"not in"`` operators won't return either. Note that you can only go forward in an iterator; there's no way to get the previous element, reset the iterator, or make a copy of it. Iterator objects |
