Iterator
In computer programming, an iterator is an object that progressively provides access to each item of a collection, in order. A collection may provide multiple iterators via its interface that provide items in different orders, such as forwards and backwards. An iterator is often implemented in terms of the structure underlying a collection implementation and is often tightly coupled to the collection to enable the operational semantics of the iterator. An iterator is behaviorally similar to a database cursor. Iterators date to the CLU programming language in 1974. Pattern An iterator provides access to an element of a collection (''element access'') and can change its internal state to provide access to the next element (''element traversal''). It also provides for creation and initialization to a first element and indicates whether all elements have been traversed. In some programming contexts, an iterator provides additional functionality. An iterator allows a consu ...

Enumerator (computer Science)
An enumerator is a Turing machine A Turing machine is a mathematical model of computation describing an abstract machine that manipulates symbols on a strip of tape according to a table of rules. Despite the model's simplicity, it is capable of implementing any computer algori ... with an attached printer. The Turing machine can use that printer as an output device to print strings. Every time the Turing machine wants to add a string to the list, it sends the string to the printer. Enumerator is a type of Turing machine variant and is equivalent with Turing machine. Formal definition An enumerator E can be defined as a 2-tape Turing machine ( Multitape Turing machine where k=2 ) whose language is \empty. Initially, E receives no input, and all the tapes are blank (i.e., filled with blank symbols). Newly defined symbol \#\in \Gamma\land\#\notin \Sigma is the delimiter that marks end of an element of S. The second tape can be regarded as the printer, strings on it are separa ...

Iteratee
In functional programming, an iteratee is a composable abstraction for incrementally processing sequentially presented chunks of input data in a purely functional fashion. With iteratees, it is possible to lazily transform how a resource will emit data, for example, by converting each chunk of the input to uppercase as they are retrieved or by limiting the data to only the five first chunks without loading the whole input data into memory. Iteratees are also responsible for opening and closing resources, providing predictable resource management. On each step, an iteratee is presented with one of three possible types of values: the next chunk of data, a value to indicate no data is available, or a value to indicate the iteration process has finished. It may return one of three possible types of values, to indicate to the caller what should be done next: one that means "stop" (and contains the final return value), one that means "continue" (and specifies how to continue), and one th ...

Enumerated Type
In computer programming, an enumerated type (also called enumeration, enum, or factor in the R (programming language), R programming language, a status variable in the JOVIAL programming language, and a categorical variable in statistics) is a data type consisting of a set of named value (computer science), values called ''elements'', ''members'', ''enumeral'', or ''enumerators'' of the type. The enumerator names are usually Identifier (computer languages), identifiers that behave as constant (programming), constants in the language. An enumerated type can be seen as a degenerate tagged union of unit type. A variable (computer science), variable that has been declaration (computer science), declared as having an enumerated type can be assigned any of the enumerators as a value. In other words, an enumerated type has values that are different from each other, and that can be compared and assigned, but are not generally specified by the programmer as having any particular concrete re ...

Census
A census (from Latin ''censere'', 'to assess') is the procedure of systematically acquiring, recording, and calculating population information about the members of a given Statistical population, population, usually displayed in the form of statistics. This term is used mostly in connection with Population and housing censuses by country, national population and housing censuses; other common censuses include Census of agriculture, censuses of agriculture, traditional culture, business, supplies, and traffic censuses. The United Nations (UN) defines the essential features of population and housing censuses as "individual enumeration, universality within a defined territory, simultaneity and defined periodicity", and recommends that population censuses be taken at least every ten years. UN recommendations also cover census topics to be collected, official definitions, classifications, and other useful information to coordinate international practices. The United Nations, UN's Food ...

Demographic
Demography () is the statistics, statistical study of human populations: their size, composition (e.g., ethnic group, age), and how they change through the interplay of fertility (births), mortality (deaths), and migration. Demographic analysis examines and measures the dimensions and Population dynamics, dynamics of populations; it can cover whole societies or groups defined by criteria such as education, nationality, religion, and ethnicity. Educational institutions usually treat demography as a field of sociology, though there are a number of independent demography departments. These methods have primarily been developed to study human populations, but are extended to a variety of areas where researchers want to know how populations of Social actions, social actors can change across time through processes of birth, death, and Human migration, migration. In the context of human biological populations, demographic analysis uses Public records, administrative records to deve ...
