Milestone on Kabale–Kisoro road

The road starts at Kabale, (2014 pop. 49,667), the largest town in Kigezi sub-region,[3] and continues westwards through Kisoro, ending in Bunagana, a distance of approximately 88.5 kilometres (55 mi). There is a 5.4 kilometres (3 mi) loop around the southern part of Kisoro Airport, added for safety concerns. Also at Kisoro, a 6.3 kilometres (4 mi) spur of the road connects to Kyanika, at the border with Rwanda. The road connects the countries of DRCongo, Uganda and Rwanda.[1][4] The coordinates of the road near Kisoro are:1°16'58.0"S, 29°42'05.0"E (Latitude:-1.282778; Longitude:29.701389).[5]

Upgrading to bitumen

The government of Uganda earmarked this road for upgrading through the conversion of the existing gravel road to bitumen surface and the building of bridges and drainage channels. The construction contract with SBI International Holdings AG of Switzerland was signed in 2007.[6] The contract price was USh: 195,445,535,968/- (approx. US$107 million at that time). 89.5 per cent of the cost was loaned to Uganda by the African Development Bank, while the Ugandan government funded the remaining 10.5 percent.[1] The road improvements were completed in 2012.[7]

Iterator pattern

In object-oriented programming, the iterator pattern is a design pattern in which an iterator is used to traverse a container and access the container's elements. The iterator pattern decouples algorithms from containers; in some cases, algorithms are necessarily container-specific and thus cannot be decoupled. For example, the hypothetical algorithm SearchForElement can be implemented generally using a specified type of iterator rather than implementing it as a container-specific algorithm. ...
