Is it really true that there's no way to get the current value from #Python's itertools.count()? All I can do is advance it and get the next value? The repr() shows the value, but I can't get an int?

@nedbat Do any of the itertools iterators expose stuff like that? My impression was that these things are supposed to be composed into pipelines in a sort of functional programming style, so the details of which one is the outermost container would be irrelevant and maybe bad practice to rely on.
