RepeatableIteratorIterator

An iterator that enables repeated iteration over a finite subset of an infinite iterator.

This iterator wraps an Iterator and applies a LimitIterator over an InfiniteIterator, allowing a limited number of repeated iterations without modifying the underlying iterator.

It also implements Countable to return the number of elements available in the limited iteration.

Usage Example:

---

• Full name: \FastForward\Iterator\RepeatableIteratorIterator
• Parent class: LimitIterator
• This class implements: Countable

Methods

__construct

Initializes the RepeatableIteratorIterator.

public __construct(iterable $iterator, int $limit, int $offset = 0): mixed

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
$iterator	iterable	the iterator to be wrapped in an infinite loop
$limit	int	the maximum number of elements to iterate over per cycle
$offset	int	the starting offset within the iterator

---

count

Returns the number of elements that can be iterated per cycle.

public count(): int

Return Value:

the count of items in the limited iteration
