/**
This module is a submodule of $(MREF std, range).

The main $(MREF std, range) module provides template-based tools for working with
ranges, but sometimes an object-based interface for ranges is needed, such as
when runtime polymorphism is required. For this purpose, this submodule
provides a number of object and $(D interface) definitions that can be used to
wrap around _range objects created by the $(MREF std, range) templates.

/**These interfaces are intended to provide virtual function-based wrappers
 * around input ranges with element type E.  This is useful where a well-defined
 * binary interface is required, such as when a DLL function or virtual function
 * needs to accept a generic range as a parameter. Note that
 * $(REF_ALTTEXT isInputRange, isInputRange, std, range, primitives)
 * and friends check for conformance to structural interfaces
 * not for implementation of these $(D interface) types.
 *
 * Limitations:
 *
 * These interfaces are not capable of forwarding $(D ref) access to elements.
 *
 * Infiniteness of the wrapped range is not propagated.
 *
 * Length is not propagated in the case of non-random access ranges.
