Until you provide a design document you may wait for a while. Asking for people to work off that link is to ask them to do a low-level port of your Python solution (which may be overly elaborate for the problem) to Java, without knowing the specifics of the problem. You'd be asking _us_ to do what you just now claimed is a "prevaricating strawman". This is the only example you can think of - evidently one where you yourself haven't tried to express it in Java - where iterators in Java are giving you a hard time? Even hypothetically maybe perhaps?
