Genuine question: what do you do when you want to implement your own loop mechanism, iterator, array type, or whatever?

It is the job of the language to ensure that language primitives are reusable and composable.
I think this would apply to whatever mechanism is designed to describe a loop's iteration space.

Most languages use some sort of interface whereby if you implement certain methods for a type then that type can be iterated over using a for loop.
