<a name="id-1.3.50.3.6.3"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>An output iterator is an iterator that can write a sequence of
values. It is single-pass (old values of the iterator cannot be
re-used), and write-only.</p>
<p>An output iterator represents a position in a (possibly infinite)
sequence. Therefore, the iterator can point into the sequence (returning
a value when dereferenced and being incrementable), or be off-the-end
(and not dereferenceable or incrementable).</p>
