Move repeated code to functions in script

This creates a few primitive functions for handling iterators and uses
them to avoid repeated code. As a result not only is the code simpler
but also fixes a forgotten bound check. Thanks to a helper function
which always does bounds check correctly this can no longer be
forgotten.
