     25  * This class provides a skeletal implementation of the {@code Iterator}
     26  * interface, to make this interface easier to implement for certain types of
     27  * data sources.
     28  *
     29  * <p>{@code Iterator} requires its implementations to support querying the
     30  * end-of-data status without changing the iterator's state, using the {@link
     31  * #hasNext} method. But many data sources, such as {@link
     32  * java.io.Reader#read()}), do not expose this information; the only way to
     33  * discover whether there is any data left is by trying to retrieve it. These
     34  * types of data sources are ordinarily difficult to write iterators for. But
     35  * using this class, one must implement only the {@link #computeNext} method,
     36  * and invoke the {@link #endOfData} method when appropriate.
     37  *
     38  * <p>Another example is an iterator that skips over null elements in a backing
     39  * iterator. This could be implemented as: <pre>   {@code
     40  *
     41  *   public static Iterator<String> skipNulls(final Iterator<String> in) {
     42  *     return new AbstractIterator<String>() {
     43  *       protected String computeNext() {
     44  *         while (in.hasNext()) {
     45  *           String s = in.next();
     46  *           if (s != null) {
     47  *             return s;
     48  *           }
     49  *         }
     50  *         return endOfData();
     51  *       }
     52  *     };
     53  *   }}</pre>
     54  *
     55  * This class supports iterators that include null elements.
