+<p>An output iterator is an iterator that can write a sequence of
+ values. It is single-pass (old values of the iterator cannot be
+ re-used), and write-only.</p>
+<p>An output iterator represents a position in a (possibly infinite)
+ sequence. Therefore, the iterator can point into the sequence (returning
+ a value when dereferenced and being incrementable), or be off-the-end
+ (and not dereferenceable or incrementable).</p>
