The question asks to flatten a nested list of integers. So we may think of using a stack(?). The trick here is that the stack stores the iterator of each list. So each time we call the hasNext() we first check the top of the stack, and iterate the list. If the data in the list is an integer, we print it out; else, push the iterator into the stack. If the iterator has reached to the end, we pop out it from the stack.

what I do is just to keep an additional field storing the next integer
If we call hasNext() multiple times before calling next() it will not give the right result since you are calling next on Iterator<NestedInteger> in hasNext() method which means that every time you call hasNext() it will remove the next Integer from the list.

Given a nested list of integers, implement an iterator to flatten it.
Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers or other lists.
Example 1:
Given the list
Given the list
[[1,1],2,[1,1]]
,
By calling next repeatedly until hasNext returns false, the order of elements returned by next should be:
[1,1,2,1,1]
.
Example 2:
Given the list
Given the list
[1,[4,[6]]]
,
By calling next repeatedly until hasNext returns false, the order of elements returned by next should be:
- What if the NestedInteger can be null[1,4,6]

A question before this is the Nested List Weight Sum, and it requires recursion to solve. As it carries to this problem that we will need recursion to solve it. But since we need to access each NestedInteger at a time, we will use a stack to help.
In the constructor, we push all the nestedList into the stack from back to front, so when we pop the stack, it returns the very first element. Second, in the hasNext() function, we peek the first element in stack currently, and if it is an Integer, we will return true and pop the element. If it is a list, we will further flatten it. This is iterative version of flatting the nested list. Again, we need to iterate from the back to front of the list.
call hasNext() before next() internally to avoid exceptionX. Better Using a stack of ListIterators.

In my opinion an iterator shouldn't copy the entire data (which some solutions have done) but just iterate over the original data structure.
I keep the current progress in a stack. My

is optional. Some user of the iterator might call only next
and never hasNext
