## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm install --save make-iterator
```

Although the code has materially changed, this was originally based on the
make iterator function in moutjs, and externalized to a module. Thanks to the
moutjs team for the inspiration.

## Usage

```js
var iterator = require('make-iterator');
```

**Regex**

```js
var arr = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'];
var fn = iterator(/[a-c]/);
console.log(arr.filter(fn));
//=> ['a', 'b', 'c'];
```

**Objects**

```js
var fn = iterator({ a: 1, b: { c: 2 } });

console.log(fn({ a: 1, b: { c: 2, d: 3 } }));
//=> true
console.log(fn({ a: 1, b: { c: 3 } }));
//=> false
```
