}Expand description
The Folder trait encapsulates the standard fold
operation. It can be fed many items using the consume
method. At the end, once all items have been consumed, it can then
be converted (using complete) into a final value.

sourcefn consume_iter<I>(self, iter: I) -> Selfwhere
I: IntoIterator<Item = Item>,
fn consume_iter<I>(self, iter: I) -> Selfwhere
I: IntoIterator<Item = Item>,
Consume items from the iterator until full, and return new sequential state.
This method is optional. The default simply iterates over
iter, invoking consume and checking after each iteration
whether full returns false.
The main reason to override it is if you can provide a more specialized, efficient implementation.
Object Safety§
This trait is not object safe.
