STIters STIters is a little library
that adds Smalltalk-style collection iterators to Kotlin.
STIters was started as some little
initial Kotlin programming exercise.
Meanwhile it has become partially obsolete as Kotlin has its own
standard library now named stdlib that provides many of the
collection iterators found in STIters.
Nevertheless, STIters contains some useful iterators in addition
and
for the time being fixes some problems with iterators in stdlib as
included in the Kotlin
plugin 0.1.2090 or earlier (see KT-1859).
Kotlin
is a relatively new
statically typed JVM-based Java-compatible
programming language much in the spirit of Scala. It is more concise
than Java by supporting
variable type inference, higher-order functions (closures), extension
functions, mixins and first-class delegation, etc. (see the
Kotlin FAQ).
It compiles at least
as fast as Java which was one of the main reasons to abandon Scala
besides making Kotlin way simpler than Scala. Being developed by
JetBrains it inherits the excellent
IntelliJ IDE (for which a Kotlin plugin is included in the free
community edition) making you very productive writing Kotlin code.
