// Class to iterate over tesseract results, providing access to all levels
// of the page hierarchy, without including any tesseract headers or having
// to handle any tesseract structures.
// WARNING! This class points to data held within the TessBaseAPI class, and
// therefore can only be used while the TessBaseAPI class still exists and
// has not been subjected to a call of Init, SetImage, Recognize, Clear, End
// DetectOS, or anything else that changes the internal PAGE_RES.
// See tesseract/apitypes.h for the definition of PageIteratorLevel.
// See also base class PageIterator, which contains the bulk of the interface.
// ResultIterator adds text-specific methods for access to OCR output.
// MutableIterator adds access to internal data structures.
