What are the Advantages of Enhanced for loop and Iterator in Java?

Question

can anyone please specify to me what are the advantages of Enhanced for loop and Iterators in java +5 ?

Answer 1

A foreach/enhanced for/for loop serves to provide a cursor onto a data object. This is particularly useful when you think in terms of “walk a file line by line” or “walk a result set record by record” as it is simple and straightforward to implement.

This also provides a more general and improved way of iterating compared to index-based methods because there is no longer any need for the caller (for loop) to know how values are fetched or collection sizes or other implementation details.
