        Iterator

Iterator interface to move over a file of GenBank entries one at a time (OBSOLETE).

This class is likely to be deprecated in a future release of Biopython.
Please use Bio.SeqIO.parse(..., format="gb") or Bio.GenBank.parse(...)
for SeqRecord and GenBank specific Record objects respectively instead.
