 ### __iter
 
-To support self-iterating objects, we modify the iteration protocol as follows: instead of simply expanding the result of expression `iter` into three variables (`gen`, `state` and `index`), we check if the first result has an `__iter` metamethod (which can be the case if it's a table, userdata or another composit object (e.g. a record in the future). If it does, the metamethod is called with `gen` as the first argument, and the returned three values replace `gen`/`state`/`index`. This happens *before* the loop:
