Iterator Usage Tutorial

This tutorial demonstrates how to use SoftRealtimeLoop as an iterator.

Basic Iterator Pattern

The iterator interface provides a more Pythonic way to work with the loop:

    # Create a 10Hz loop (0.1 second period)
    rt_loop = SoftRealtimeLoop(dt=0.1)

    print("Counting up every 0.1 seconds...")

    # Using the loop as an iterator
    for t in rt_loop:
        print(f"Time: {t:.3f} seconds")

Key Concepts

1. The t value represents the time since the loop started (in seconds)
2. Each iteration occurs at precise time intervals
3. The loop can be stopped by breaking the for loop, calling rt_loop.stop(), or sending an interrupt signal (Ctrl+C)
