   @tqchen Originally, I consider this as a control flow operator, so I use foreach because a lot of languages use `foreach` as a keyword for this. But DL frameworks consider this operator as a high-order function and call it `scan`. It makes sense to follow the convention of the DL frameworks, although the definition of this operator is a little different from the one in TensorFlow (`foreach` here splits outputs of an iteration into outputs of the loop and loop variables).
