Description:
------------
---
From manual page: https://php.net/language.oop5.iterations
---
The example for an object implementing Iterator on this page has every method, including next()
returning a value, but the return types on these methods don't allow this.
While this "works", it will cause static analysis to hilight these as errors.
Additionally, the example here feels duplicitous - would it not be better to simply link to https://www.php.net/manual/en/class.iterator.php
which already has a very similar (and more correctly implemented) example?
