% Iterators
There is a new edition of the book and this is an old link.
> The iterator pattern allows you to perform some task on a sequence of items in turn.
> An iterator is responsible for the logic of iterating over each item and determining when the sequence has finished.
```rust
let v1 = vec![1, 2, 3];
let v1_iter = v1.iter();
for val in v1_iter {
println!("Got: {}", val);
}
```
