--- @brief
---
--- [vim.iter()]() is an interface for [iterable]s: it wraps a table or function argument into an
--- [Iter]() object with methods (such as [Iter:filter()] and [Iter:map()]) that transform the
--- underlying source data. These methods can be chained to create iterator "pipelines": the output
--- of each pipeline stage is input to the next stage. The first stage depends on the type passed to
--- `vim.iter()`:
---
--- - List tables (arrays, |lua-list|) yield only the value of each element.
---   - Use |Iter:enumerate()| to also pass the index to the next stage.
---   - Or initialize with ipairs(): `vim.iter(ipairs(…))`.
--- - Non-list tables (|lua-dict|) yield both the key and value of each element.
--- - Function |iterator|s yield all values returned by the underlying function.
--- - Tables with a |__call()| metamethod are treated as function iterators.
---
--- The iterator pipeline terminates when the underlying |iterable| is exhausted (for function
--- iterators this means it returned nil).
---
--- Note: `vim.iter()` scans table input to decide if it is a list or a dict; to avoid this cost you
--- can wrap the table with an iterator e.g. `vim.iter(ipairs({…}))`, but that precludes the use of
--- |list-iterator| operations such as |Iter:rev()|).
---
--- Examples:
---
--- ```lua
--- local it = vim.iter({ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 })
--- it:map(function(v)
---   return v * 3
--- end)
--- it:rev()
--- it:skip(2)
--- it:totable()
--- -- { 9, 6, 3 }
---
--- -- ipairs() is a function iterator which returns both the index (i) and the value (v)
--- vim.iter(ipairs({ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 })):map(function(i, v)
---   if i > 2 then return v end
--- end):totable()
--- -- { 3, 4, 5 }
---
--- local it = vim.iter(vim.gsplit('1,2,3,4,5', ','))
--- it:map(function(s) return tonumber(s) end)
--- for i, d in it:enumerate() do
---   print(string.format("Column %d is %d", i, d))
--- end
--- -- Column 1 is 1
--- -- Column 2 is 2
--- -- Column 3 is 3
--- -- Column 4 is 4
--- -- Column 5 is 5
---
--- vim.iter({ a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, z = 26 }):any(function(k, v)
---   return k == 'z'
--- end)
--- -- true
---
--- local rb = vim.ringbuf(3)
--- rb:push("a")
--- rb:push("b")
--- vim.iter(rb):totable()
--- -- { "a", "b" }
--- ```

--- Maps the items of an iterator pipeline to the values returned by `f`.

---                      the previous stage in the pipeline as arguments
---                      and returns one or more new values, which are used
---                      in the next pipeline stage. Nil return values
---                      are filtered from the output.
---@return Iter
function Iter:map(f)
  -- Implementation note: the reader may be forgiven for observing that this
  -- function appears excessively convoluted. The problem to solve is that each
  -- stage of the iterator pipeline can return any number of values, and the
  -- number of values could even change per iteration. And the return values
  -- must be checked to determine if the pipeline has ended, so we cannot
  -- naively forward them along to the next stage.
  --
  -- A simple approach is to pack all of the return values into a table, check
  -- for nil, then unpack the table for the next stage. However, packing and
  -- unpacking tables is quite slow. There is no other way in Lua to handle an
  -- unknown number of function return values than to simply forward those
  -- values along to another function. Hence the intricate function passing you
  -- see here.

  local next = self.next

  --- Drain values from the upstream iterator source until a value can be
  --- returned.
  ---
  --- This is a recursive function. The base case is when the first argument is

  --- as the values for the current iteration stage.
  ---
  ---@param cont boolean If true, the current iterator stage should continue to
  ---                    pull values from its upstream pipeline stage.
  ---                    Otherwise, this stage is complete and returns the
  ---                    values passed.

--- Collect the iterator into a table.
---
--- The resulting table depends on the initial source in the iterator pipeline.
--- List-like tables and function iterators will be collected into a list-like
--- table. If multiple values are returned from the final stage in the iterator
--- pipeline, each value will be included in a table.
---
--- Examples:
---
--- ```lua
--- vim.iter(string.gmatch('100 20 50', '%d+')):map(tonumber):totable()
--- -- { 100, 20, 50 }
---
--- vim.iter({ 1, 2, 3 }):map(function(v) return v, 2 * v end):totable()
--- -- { { 1, 2 }, { 2, 4 }, { 3, 6 } }
---
--- vim.iter({ a = 1, b = 2, c = 3 }):filter(function(k, v) return v % 2 ~= 0 end):totable()
--- -- { { 'a', 1 }, { 'c', 3 } }
--- ```
---
--- The generated table is a list-like table with consecutive, numeric indices.
--- To create a map-like table with arbitrary keys, use |Iter:fold()|.
