Iterator documentation uses an array when it probably meant to use a vec

[bstrie]

http://doc.rust-lang.org/1.0.0-beta.3/book/iterators.html#iterators

See the third code block:

let nums = [1, 2, 3];

for num in nums.iter() {
   println!("{}", num);
}

Up to this point this chapter has used vec![] instead of [] exclusively, and even the paragraph above this code refers to "vectors". This has led to some confusion over whether [] creates a vector, which is probably not an explanation fit for this section.

doesn't the documentation also try to present semi-idiomatic rust, though? Creating a vec! when a static array would suffice will just get people filing bugs against that, right?

Further down it uses .step_by which is unstable.
