  // One important design goal of the zip_iterator is to isolate all
  // functionality whose implementation relies on the current tuple
  // implementation. This goal has been achieved as follows: Inside
  // the namespace detail there is a namespace tuple_impl_specific.
  // This namespace encapsulates all functionality that is specific
  // to the current Boost tuple implementation. More precisely, the
  // namespace tuple_impl_specific provides the following tuple
  // algorithms and meta-algorithms for the current Boost tuple
  // implementation:
  //
  // tuple_meta_transform
  // tuple_meta_accumulate
  // tuple_transform
  // tuple_for_each
  //
  // If the tuple implementation changes, all that needs to be
  // replaced is the implementation of these four (meta-)algorithms.
