No, I'm afraid not. There should definitely be an iterator that does
that though. Patches are welcome. I was going to suggest doing
something like this in the meantime:

  for (std::size_t i = 1; i != len(table); ++i)
  {
      table[i] ... ;
  }

but it seems there is no len() function either. Again, patches are welcome. ;)
