| The taxonomy of sequence concepts in MPL parallels the taxonomy of the MPL |
| |iterators|, with two additional classification dimensions: |
| `extensibility` and `associativeness`. |
| |
| .. The latter two are orthogonal to |
| sequence traversal characteristics, but not to each other, meaning that |
| a sequence can be characterized as both `Bidirectional`__ |
| and `Back Extensible`__, or `Bidirectional`__ and |
| `Extensible Associative`__, but not as `Bidirectional`__, |
| `Back Extensible`__ *and* `Extensible Associative`__. |
| |
| __ `Bidirectional Sequence`_ |
| __ `Back Extensible Sequence`_ |
| __ `Bidirectional Sequence`_ |
| __ `Extensible Associative Sequence`_ |
| __ `Bidirectional Sequence`_ |
| __ `Back Extensible Sequence`_ |
| __ `Extensible Associative Sequence`_ |
| |
| |
| Two utility concepts, |Variadic Sequence| and |Integral Sequence Wrapper|, |
| are not applicable in generic contexts, but are used to group together |
| the common parts of different sequence classes' specifications. |
