+""" Test Iterator Length Transparency
+
+Some functions or methods which accept general iterable arguments have
+optional, more efficient code paths if they know how many items to expect.
+For instance, map(func, iterable), will pre-allocate the exact amount of
+space required whenever the iterable can report its length.
+
+The desired invariant is: len(it)==len(list(it)).
+
+A complication is that an iterable and iterator can be the same object. To
+maintain the invariant, an iterator needs to dynamically update its length.
+For instance, an iterable such as xrange(10) always reports its length as ten,
+but it=iter(xrange(10)) starts at ten, and then goes to nine after it.next().
+Having this capability means that map() can ignore the distinction between
+map(func, iterable) and map(func, iter(iterable)).
+
+When the iterable is immutable, the implementation can straight-forwardly
+report the original length minus the cumulative number of calls to next().
+This is the case for tuples, xrange objects, and itertools.repeat().
+
+Some containers become temporarily immutable during iteration. This includes
+dicts, sets, and collections.deque. Their implementation is equally simple
+though they need to permantently set their length to zero whenever there is
+an attempt to iterate after a length mutation.
+
+The situation slightly more involved whenever an object allows length mutation
+during iteration. Lists and sequence iterators are dynanamically updatable.
+So, if a list is extended during iteration, the iterator will continue through
+the new items. If it shrinks to a point before the most recent iteration,
+then no further items are available and the length is reported at zero.
+
+Reversed objects can also be wrapped around mutable objects; however, any
+appends after the current position are ignored. Any other approach leads
+to confusion and possibly returning the same item more than once.
+
+The iterators not listed above, such as enumerate and the other itertools,
+are not length transparent because they have no way to distinguish between
+iterables that report static length and iterators whose length changes with
+each call (i.e. the difference between enumerate('abc') and
+enumerate(iter('abc')).
