> the function reduce in mahout-0.7-kmeans-CIReducer.java doesn't work well as it looks like.
>   protected void reduce(IntWritable key, Iterable<ClusterWritable> values, Context context) throws IOException,
>       InterruptedException {
>     Iterator<ClusterWritable> iter = values.iterator();
>     ClusterWritable first = null;

> Apparently， the variable "first" will collect all output data of maps. Actually but, the value of "first" will change after the code "ClusterWritable cw = iter.next();", same with this new variable "cw"! I don't why but running result shows that the code runs looks like this:"ClusterWritable cw  = first = iter.next();".
> "cw" is a reference a to "iter"?
> is "iter.next" just change the value of "iter" itself to the next?
