What are iterators?..

Answer / gp_bellamkonda

What Sumit suggested was correct.Adding few more points to
it.

--The iterator code uses the yield return statement to
return each element in turn. yield break ends the
iteration. For more information, see yield.

--Multiple iterators can be implemented on a class. Each
iterator must have a unique name just like any class
member, and can be invoked by client code in a foreach
statement as follows: foreach(int x in
SampleClass.Iterator2){}

--The return type of an iterator must be IEnumerable,
IEnumerator, IEnumerable<T>, or IEnumerator<T>.

public System.Collections.IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
{
for (int i = 0; i < days.Length; i++)
{
yield return days[i];
}
}
}

class TestDaysOfTheWeek
{
static void Main()
{
// Create an instance of the collection class
DaysOfTheWeek week = new DaysOfTheWeek();

// Iterate with foreach
foreach (string day in week)
{
System.Console.Write(day + " ");
}
}
}
// Output: Sun Mon Tue Wed Thr Fri Sat
