+/// Extend a [`JoinSet`] with futures from an iterator.
+///
+/// This is equivalent to calling [`JoinSet::spawn`] on each element of the iterator.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// ```
+/// use tokio::task::JoinSet;
+///
+/// #[tokio::main]
+/// async fn main() {
+///     let mut set: JoinSet<_> = (0..5).map(|i| async move { i }).collect();
+///
+///     set.extend((5..10).map(|i| async move { i }));
+///
+///     let mut seen = [false; 10];
+///     while let Some(res) = set.join_next().await {
+///         let idx = res.unwrap();
+///         seen[idx] = true;
+///     }
+///
+///     for i in 0..10 {
+///         assert!(seen[i]);
+///     }
+/// }
+/// ```
