Iterable

An iterable object returns an iterator when passed to the build-in function iter() 
 
A = [1, 2, 3]
I = iter(A) # iterator

print(next(I)) # 1
print(next(I)) # 2
print(next(I)) # 3

try:
    print(next(I))
except StopIteration:
    print("StopIteration")

Loop

A loop implicitly creates an iterator from the iterable object and calls its next() method. 
 
A = [1, 2, 3]

for i in A:
    print(i) # 1, 2, 3

Any Object

An iterator can be used with any iterable object, not just lists. 
 
s = "abc"
I = iter(s)

print(next(I))
print(next(I))
print(next(I))

try:
    print(next(I))
except StopIteration:
    pass
