## Usage

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var iterNonPositiveEvenIntegersSeq = require( '@stdlib/math/iter/sequences/nonpositive-even-integers' );
```

#### iterNonPositiveEvenIntegersSeq( \[options] )

Returns an iterator which generates a sequence of nonpositive even integers.

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var it = iterNonPositiveEvenIntegersSeq();
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0

v = it.next().value;
// returns -2

v = it.next().value;
// returns -4

// ...
```

The returned iterator protocol-compliant object has the following properties:

-   **next**: function which returns an iterator protocol-compliant object containing the next iterated value (if one exists) assigned to a `value` property and a `done` property having a `boolean` value indicating whether the iterator is finished.
-   **return**: function which closes an iterator and returns a single (optional) argument in an iterator protocol-compliant object.

The function supports the following `options`:

-   **iter**: number of iterations. Default: `4503599627370497`.

By default, the function returns a finite iterator to avoid exceeding the maximum safe double-precision floating-point integer. To adjust the number of iterations, set the `iter` option.

```javascript
var opts = {
    'iter': 2
};
var it = iterNonPositiveEvenIntegersSeq( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0

v = it.next().value;
// returns -2

var bool = it.next().done;
// returns true
```

## Notes

-   If an environment supports `Symbol.iterator`, the returned iterator is iterable.

## Examples

<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var iterNonPositiveEvenIntegersSeq = require( '@stdlib/math/iter/sequences/nonpositive-even-integers' );

// Create an iterator:
var opts = {
    'iter': 100
};
var it = iterNonPositiveEvenIntegersSeq( opts );

// Perform manual iteration...
var v;
while ( true ) {
    v = it.next();
    if ( v.done ) {
        break;
    }
    console.log( v.value );
}
