:abstract: How would you fill up a vector with the numbers zero
through one hundred using ``std::copy()``? The only iterator
operation missing from builtin integer types is an
``operator*()`` that returns the current value of the integer.
The counting iterator adaptor adds this crucial piece of
functionality to whatever type it wraps. One can use the
counting iterator adaptor not only with integer types, but with
any type that is **Incrementable** (see type requirements
below).
