I couldn't find any discussion of it, but maybe my googling's off today ;-/
def foo(): ... it = iter(range(10))
... while True:
... i = it.next()
... print i
... if i&3==0:
... print 'skipping next'
... it.next()
...
------------------< This looks ok: foo() 0
skipping next
2
3
4
skipping next
6
7
8
skipping next
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "<stdin>", line 4, in foo
StopIteration ------------< now at interactive global scope: it = iter(range(10))
while True: ... i = it.next()
... print i
... if i&3==0:
... print 'skipping next'
... it.next()

-----<this doesn't look ok: it.next() is apparently not doing anything:
0
skipping next
1
2
3
4
skipping next
5
6
7
8
skipping next
9

StopIteration
----------------------------< but add a print, and all is well?? it = iter(range(10))
while True:
... i = it.next()
... print i
... if i&3==0:
... print 'skipping next'
... print '-->', it.next()
...
0
skipping next
--> 1

skipping next

I guess it could be in the read-eval-print loop
I have an old 2.4 on NT4 and am running it in a console window.
