-class IterableNamespace(SimpleNamespace):
-    """
-    A namespace object that supports both dictionary-like iteration and dot notation access.
-    Automatically converts nested dictionaries into IterableNamespaces.
-
-    This class extends SimpleNamespace to provide:
-    - Dictionary-style iteration over keys
-    - Access to items via both dot notation (obj.key) and brackets (obj["key"])
-    - Dictionary-like methods: items(), keys(), values()
-    - Recursive conversion of nested dictionaries
-
-    Args:
-        dictionary: Optional dictionary to initialize the namespace
-        **kwargs: Additional keyword arguments passed to SimpleNamespace
-
-    Examples:
-        >>> data = {"name": "Alice", "details": {"age": 25}}
-        >>> ns = IterableNamespace(data)
-        >>> ns.name
-        'Alice'
-        >>> ns.details.age
-        25
-        >>> list(ns.keys())
-        ['name', 'details']
-        >>> for key, value in ns.items():
-        ...     print(f"{key}: {value}")
-        name: Alice
-        details: IterableNamespace(age=25)
