NAME
    NumSeq::Iter - Generate a coderef iterator from a number sequence
    specification (e.g. '1,3,5,...,101')

VERSION
    This document describes version 0.001 of NumSeq::Iter (from Perl
    distribution NumSeq-Iter), released on 2021-07-17.

SYNOPSIS
      use NumSeq::Iter qw(numseq_iter);

      my $iter = numseq_iter('1,3,5,...,13');
      while (my $val = $iter->()) { ... } # 1,3,5,7,9,11,13

DESCRIPTION
    This module provides a simple (coderef) iterator which you can call
    repeatedly to get numbers specified in a number sequence specification
    (string). When the numbers are exhausted, the coderef will return undef.
    No class/object involved.

    A number sequence is a comma-separated list of numbers (either integer
    like 1, -2 or decimal number like 1.3, -100.70) with at least one
    number. It can contain an ellipsis (e.g. '1,2,3,...' or '1, 3, 5, ...,
    10').

    When the sequence has an ellipsis, there must be at least three numbers
    before the ellipsis. There can optionally be another number after the
    ellipsis to make the sequence finite; but the last number can also be
    Inf, +Inf, or -Inf. Currently only simple arithmetic sequence ('1,3,5')
    or simple geometric sequence ('2,6,18') is recognized.
