Nothing
#' Iterator that returns an object indefinitely
#'
#' Constructs an iterator that returns an object over and over again.
#'
#' Runs indefinitely unless the \code{times} argument is specified. Used as
#' argument to \code{\link[itertools2]{imap}} for invariant function
#' parameters. Also used with \code{\link[itertools2]{izip}} to create constant
#' fields in a tuple record.
#'
#' @export
#' @param object object to return indefinitely.
#' @param times the number of times \code{object} is returned. If \code{NULL}
#' (default), \code{object} is returned indefinitely.
#' @return iterator that returns \code{object}
