Iterators

The new iter package provides the basic definitions for working with user-defined iterators.

The slices package adds several functions that work with iterators:

• All returns an iterator over slice indexes and values.
• Values returns an iterator over slice elements.
• Backward returns an iterator that loops over a slice backward.
• Collect collects values from an iterator into a new slice.
• AppendSeq appends values from an iterator to an existing slice.
• Sorted collects values from an iterator into a new slice, and then sorts the slice.
• SortedFunc is like Sorted but with a comparison function.
• SortedStableFunc is like SortFunc but uses a stable sort algorithm.
