# Trait core::iter::DoubleEndedIterator 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub trait DoubleEndedIterator: Iterator {
        fn next_back(&mut self) -> Option<Self::Item>;
    }

An iterator able to yield elements from both ends.

Something that implements `DoubleEndedIterator` has one extra capability over something that implements `Iterator`: the ability to also take `Item`s from the back, as well as the front.

It is important to note that both back and forth work on the same range, and do not cross: iteration is over when they meet in the middle.

In a similar fashion to the `Iterator` protocol, once a `DoubleEndedIterator` returns `None` from a `next_back()`, calling it again may or may not ever return `Some` again. `next()` and `next_back()` are interchangable for this purpose.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let numbers = vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6];

    let mut iter = numbers.iter();

    assert_eq!(Some(&1), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(Some(&6), iter.next_back());
    assert_eq!(Some(&5), iter.next_back());
    assert_eq!(Some(&2), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(Some(&3), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(Some(&4), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(None, iter.next());
    assert_eq!(None, iter.next_back());Run

## Required Methods

### `fn next_back(&mut self) -> Option<Self::Item>`

Removes and returns an element from the end of the iterator.

Returns `None` when there are no more elements.

The trait-level docs contain more details.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let numbers = vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6];

    let mut iter = numbers.iter();

    assert_eq!(Some(&1), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(Some(&6), iter.next_back());
    assert_eq!(Some(&5), iter.next_back());
    assert_eq!(Some(&2), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(Some(&3), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(Some(&4), iter.next());
    assert_eq!(None, iter.next());
    assert_eq!(None, iter.next_back());Run

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
