iterable
- An object capable of returning its members one at a
- time. Examples of iterables include all sequence types (such as
- :class:`list`, :class:`str`, and :class:`tuple`) and some non-sequence
- types like :class:`dict` and :class:`file` and objects of any classes you
- define with an :meth:`__iter__` or :meth:`__getitem__` method. Iterables
- can be used in a :keyword:`for` loop and in many other places where a
- sequence is needed (:func:`zip`, :func:`map`, ...). When an iterable
- object is passed as an argument to the built-in function :func:`iter`, it
- returns an iterator for the object. This iterator is good for one pass
- over the set of values. When using iterables, it is usually not necessary
- to call :func:`iter` or deal with iterator objects yourself. The ``for``
