MUST NOT be implemented as Iterator.from(0).filter(iterateDimension.isDefinedAt)....fold(...) (a real, confirmed bug this replaced -- see .claude/WORKLOG-cohomology.md): Iterator.filter on an infinite source can never prove "no more matches ahead", so once past the last dimension iterateDimension is defined for, it spins forever searching for a d that will never come -- and Int silently wrapping from Int.MaxValue to Int.MinValue after ~2^31 iterations can eventually feed a huge negative d straight to iterateDimension instead, surfacing as a BinomialCoefficient range exception rather than a hang. .takeWhile instead stops at the first d this is undefined for and never asks about any d beyond it, relying on exactly the contiguous-domain contract documented on iterateDimension above.
The number of elements in this collection, if it can be cheaply computed, -1 otherwise. Cheaply usually means: Not requiring a collection traversal.

def stepper[S <: Stepper[_]](implicit shape: StepperShape[Simplex[VertexT], S]): S
Returns a scala.collection.Stepper for the elements of this collection.
Returns a scala.collection.Stepper for the elements of this collection.
The Stepper enables creating a Java stream to operate on the collection, see scala.jdk.StreamConverters. For collections holding primitive values, the Stepper can be used as an iterator which doesn't box the elements.
The implicit scala.collection.StepperShape parameter defines the resulting Stepper type according to the element type of this collection.
For collections of Int, Short, Byte or Char, an scala.collection.IntStepper is returned
For collections of Double or Float, a scala.collection.DoubleStepper is returned
For collections of Long a scala.collection.LongStepper is returned
For any other element type, an scala.collection.AnyStepper is returned
Note that this method is overridden in subclasses and the return type is refined to S with EfficientSplit, for example scala.collection.IndexedSeqOps.stepper. For Steppers marked with scala.collection.Stepper.EfficientSplit, the converters in scala.jdk.StreamConverters allow creating parallel streams, whereas bare Steppers can be converted only to sequential streams.
Type parameters
S
the type of the returned Stepper, determined by the implicit StepperShape
Contract .iterator below relies on: the domain must be contiguous starting at 0 -- defined for 0, 1, ..., k for some k (or empty, or all of the non-negative integers), never with a gap. .iterator stops at the first dimension this is undefined for, so a non-contiguous domain (defined at d but not at d - 1) would silently truncate iteration instead of skipping the gap. Every implementation in this codebase already satisfies this (a simplicial complex can't have a d-simplex without its (d-1)-dimensional faces, so "no cells at d" implies "no cells at any dimension beyond d" too); a new implementation must preserve it.
