Implementing Iterators for iterating containers.

Implementing Basic iterators for iterating containers and adding more iterator methods

My basic idea is to create a iterator struct inside the vector struct so that each vector will have a iterator associated with it.
The iterator struct will have defined methods like the C++ iterators have See so that we can user (.) operator to call the iterator associated with it.

And making each iterator struct's object/variable as a stand alone datatype which can be used to iterate vector for now only, but the issue with this is whether to choose if the iterator will have a type, like in C++ there are iterator of all datatype so how to implement something similar in this scenario.

Feel free to share any ideas.

I think instead of first implementing the containers, you should implement templates / generics. This will enable you to write the containers for all datatypes easily.

I am trying to work my way around types by representing the types in enums. And on every operation the type of the container/iterator will be checked and depending on the type the data will be type casted accordingly.
