Given an Iterator class interface with methods: next()
and
hasNext()
, design and implement a PeekingIterator that support the
peek()
operation -- it essentially peek() at the element that will be returned
by the next call to next().
Example:
Assume that the iterator is initialized to the beginning of the list:[1,2,3]
. Callnext()
gets you 1, the first element in the list. Now you callpeek()
and it returns 2, the next element. Callingnext()
after that still return 2. You callnext()
the final time and it returns 3, the last element. CallinghasNext()
after that should return false.
