Unless, of course, __iter__ resets the iteration variable to its starting value. But it would definitely not be simultaneously doubly iterable, as one would want to compute a self crossproduct. And one could object that such an __iter__ is not proper for an iterator (return self and do nothing else). So such an __iter__ should better be written, perhap as a generator function, to return an independent object with independently initialized iteration variable. Terry J.
