Iterator-Simple-Lookahead version 0.01
======================================
Iterator::Simple::Lookahead - Simple iterator with lookahead and unget
This module encapsulates an iterator function. An iterator function returns the
next element in the stream on each call, and returns C<undef> on end of input.
The iterator can return a code reference - this new iterator is inserted at the
head of the queue.
The object allows the user to C<peek()> the Nth element of the stream without
consuming it, or to get it and remove from the stream.
A list of items can also be pushed back to the stream by C<unget()>,
to be retrieved in the subsequent C<next()> calls. The next item can also be
retrieved by calling C<$iter-E<gt>()>.
The input list to the constructor and to C<unget()> contains items to be
retrieved on each C<next()> call, or code references to be called to extract the
next item from the stream.
Other types of input can be converted to a code reference by C<iter()> of
L<Iterator::Simple|Iterator::Simple>.
This module is built on top of L<Iterator::Simple|Iterator::Simple>
and returns iterators that are compatible with the former,
i.e. an object of type C<Iterator::Simple::Lookahead>
can be used as an input to C<iter()>.
