 * An annotation for <em>iterative elements</em>.

 * <h3> iterative user operator </h3>
 * If iterative parameters are used in a user defined operator, put an <code>&#64;Iterative</code> before
 * its operator annotation.

// operators
public abstract class Something {

    &#64;Iterative(...)

 * considered as a <em>scoped iterative element</em>. It sometimes has advantages for <em>scope-less iterative
 * elements</em>: re-evaluating the target element will be reduced (optional operation).
