/** 
 * Implements an {@link java.util.Iterator Iterator} over any array.

 * The array can be either an array of object or of primitives. If you know 
 * that you have an object array, the 
 * {@link org.apache.commons.collections.iterators.ObjectArrayIterator ObjectArrayIterator}
 * class is a better choice, as it will perform better.
 * 
 * The iterator implements a {@link #reset} method, allowing the reset of 
 * the iterator back to the start if required.
