I was just recently going through some old episodes from Software Engineering Radio when I came across this one episode featuring Casey Muratori, where he goes through some of his thoughts around his video from February 2023, titled "‘Clean’ Code, Horrible Performance". I was actually already aware of the video by this time, but listening through the episode gave me an itch to see these concepts in my reality, experiment them by myself.

    Do you mean this for loop?

    for shape in &shapes {
  accum += shape.area();
}

    That does use an iterator

    for-in-loops, or to be more precise, iterator loops, are a simple syntactic sugar over a common practice within Rust, which is to loop over anything that implements IntoIterator until the iterator returned by .into_iter() returns None (or the loop body uses break).
