Jim Jewett added the comment: OK, then how about
Current: """ When a generator function is called, it returns an iterator known as a generator. That generator then controls the execution of a generator function. The execution starts when one of the generator’s methods is called. """ Proposed: """ When a generator function is called, it does not complete its execution immediately. Instead, it keeps its execution frame intact, and returns a special kind of iterator known as a generator. The iteration starts when one of the generator’s methods is called, and the generator executes within the existing generator frame, rather than creating a new one. """ This still seems to suggest that the generator uses the same frame as the generator function that created it; I was not aware that this was a guarantee. (Reusing the same frame, yes. Reusing that particular frame, no.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24088> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
