The Iterable interface

The Iterable interface has a strong relation to the Iterator. The Iterator is an interface used to get items from a collection, one at a time. It follows the fail-fast principles to immediately report whether the iterating collection was modified. The Iterator has a property called current, which is used to return a currently pointed element. The Iterator is initially positioned before the first element in a collection. The moveNext method returns true if there is a next element in the collection and false if not. Before using the Iterator, it must be initialized with the moveNext method to point it to the first element. In the following code, we don't initialize the Iterator with the moveNext method:

void main() {
  List<String> colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue'];

  Iterator<String> iter = colors.iterator;
  do  {
    print(iter.current);
  } while (iter.moveNext());
}

The result of this code is unspecified, but it can return null or generate an exception...
