Further information
1. Once an iterator has been bound to an array with inititer this function can be called iteratively until it returns false in order to enumerate all cells of the associated array. The state of the iterator is set to ITER_READY whenever true is returned ( i.e. the iterator can be used to dereference an array).
2. After this function has returned false the iterator is in the state ITER_DONE. Calling it again will have no effect and the return value will remain false.
3. Trying to use this function on an unbound iterator will cause a runtime error.
