20 Conceptually a music-iterator operates on a queue of musical events
21 that are pending. This queue does not actually exist, but it is a
22 way of viewing and traversing music-expressions.
25 ok () -- events left ?
27 pending_mom () -- time tag of the next event to be processed.
29 process (M) -- process all at M (Precondition: no events exist before
32 * This removes all events at M from the pending queue.
34 * Typically this reports the music to an interpretation context,
35 thus changing the state of the interpretation context.
37 get_music (M) -- return all events starting at M (pre: no events
38 before M). No side-effects
40 skip (M) -- remove all events starting before M (leave the ones that
41 start M). no side-effects on interpretation context
46 merge pending_moment and process.
