Function Details: iter

Description

Returns an iterator object.

Extended Description

The iter() function returns an iterator object. It can be called in two ways: with a single iterable argument, or with a callable and a sentinel. When called with a single argument, the argument must be iterable. When called with two arguments, the first must be callable and is called until it returns the sentinel value.
