[swift-evolution] [Review] SE-0094: Add sequence(initial:next:) and sequence(state:next:) to the stdlib

[Matthew Johnson]

>         * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

+1.  These functions are really handy.  The standard library should definitely include commonly useful utilities like these.

>         * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?

Yes.  It’s best to have these in the standard library rather than all creating our own versions.

>         * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

Yes.

>         * If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

I like that this proposal modifies the signature of `sequence(state:next:) to use `inout`.  The ability to do this is an advantage Swift has over functional languages.

>         * How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?

Quick reading, but also followed the discussions and the prior review.
