---Returns an iterator function that, each time it is called, returns the next captures from `pattern` (see [§6.4.1](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#6.4.1)) over the string s.
---
---As an example, the following loop will iterate over all the words from string s, printing one per line:
---```lua
--- s =
---"hello world from Lua"
--- for w in string.gmatch(s, "%a+") do
--- print(w)
--- end
---```
