public interface LazyLongIterator
```
A lazy iterator over longs.
An instance of this class represent a (skippable) iterator over longs. The iterator is exhausted when an implementation-dependent special marker is returned. This fully lazy architecture halves the number of method calls w.r.t. Java's eager iterators.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`long`	`nextLong()`	The next long returned by this iterator, or the special marker if this iterator is exhausted.
`long`	`skip(long n)`	Skips a given number of elements.

- Method Detail
  - nextLong
```
long nextLong()
```
    The next long returned by this iterator, or the special marker if this iterator is exhausted.
    
    Returns:
    
    next long returned by this iterator, or the special marker if this iterator is exhausted.
  - skip
```
long skip(long n)
```
    Skips a given number of elements.
    
    Parameters:
    
    n - the number of elements to skip.
    
    Returns:
    
    the number of elements actually skipped (which might be less than n if this iterator is exhausted).
