PHP遍历接口Iterator详解

从手册中查到的解释是：

Iterator extends Traversable {
/* Methods */
abstract public mixed current ( void )
abstract public scalar key ( void )
abstract public void next ( void )
abstract public void rewind ( void )
abstract public boolean valid ( void )
}

当一个实现了Iterator接口的对象，被foreach遍历时，会自动调用这些方法。调用的循序是：
rewind() -> valid() -> current() -> key() -> next()

下面来看一下简单的代码：

class myIterator implements Iterator {  
    private $position = 0;  
    private $array = array(  
        "firstelement",  
        "secondelement",  
        "lastelement",  
    );    
  
    public function __construct() {  
        $this->position = 0;  
    }  
  
    function rewind() {  
        var_dump(__METHOD__);  
        $this->position = 0;  
    }  
  
    function current() {  
        var_dump(__METHOD__);  
        return $this->array[$this->position];  
    }  
  
    function key() {  
        var_dump(__METHOD__);  
        return $this->position;  
    }  
  
    function next() {  
        var_dump(__METHOD__);  
        ++$this->position;  
    }  
  
    function valid() {  
        var_dump(__METHOD__);  
        return isset($this->array[$this->position]);  
    }  
}  
  
$it = new myIterator;  
  
foreach($it as $key => $value) {  
    var_dump($key, $value);  
    echo '---------------------------'."\n";
}  

以上会输出：
