    Occasionally you may have a block that when evaluated can be

    treated as a collection -- i.e. it takes another block as parameter,

    then applies that to a sequence of values.

    This goodie wraps the block into an object -- an iterator -- which is

    part of the collection hierarchy, and therefore inherits a variety of

    useful collection-related methods.

 an iterator, simulating the collection of all classes in the system:

     |i b|

     b := [:whatToDo |

     i := Iterator on:b.

     i do:[:cls |

     ].

 much like above, one that simulates the collection of all methodNames starting with 'a':

     |i b|

     b := [:whatToDo |

     i := Iterator on:b.

     i do:[:nm |

     ].

 an iterator, simulating a collection of 100 random values:

     |i b|

     b := [:whatToDo |

     i := Iterator on:b.

     i do:[:j |

     ].

 an iterator, simulating a collection of the lines

 in a file:

     |i b|

     b := [:whatToDo |

     i := Iterator on:b.

     i do:[:j |
