#------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#

# Iterables : this is something which can be looped over so  list is the iterables 

'''Specificly 
it means that object needs to return an iterator object from its __iter__ method 
and iterator that is returend from __iter__ methos must define __next__ method which 
accesses elements container one at a times '''

#1. Iterable: An object you can iterate over (e.g., lists, strings).

#2. Iterator: An object that provides a stream of data and has __iter__() and __next__() methods.

#3. iter(): A function to obtain an iterator from an iterable.


''''

iter(): A built-in function to obtain an iterator from an iterable.

__iter__(): A special method in an iterable object that returns an iterator.

next(): A built-in function to get the next item from an iterator.

__next__(): A special method in an iterator that returns the next item.

# if something is iterable than it must have the method called -__iter__()


# so for loop is calling the method __iter__ on the object and retruning the iterator 

#Iterator: so iterator is a object in a state and it remeber where it is during iterations 
#and they get their next value by the __next__ method

#print(next(nums))
#list doesn't have the __next__ method so it isn't  iterator

#                         Implement the iter method on the list

#object is the iterator in a state so it rember where it is during the iterations 

it = iter(nums)

#print(next(i_nums)) #stop iteration error
