ACCU Cambridge’s next talk will take place on Wednesday 5th December from 19:00.

Synopsis

What is iteration? Is rolling round in a loop from one end of a list to the other the most an iterator can hope for in its brief life? Given modern inventions like foreach, do iterators even have a place in modern programming?

By examining some of the ways iterators and enumerators are used in various languages (including procedural and functional styles), perhaps we can widen the horizons of an iterator and take them beyond simple for loops to become a significant and useful part of the programming toolbox.

Speaker - Jez Higgins

Jez sits in his attic and types for a living. He’s let out to walk the dog and go swimming occasionally.

He describes himself as a C++ programmer, but currently spends a reasonable amount of time working in Java and C#, with the odd bit of Python on the side. Over the last several years, without really seeking it out everything he has done has had some type of XML data flying around.
