core-mentorship is intended as a friendly place for folks who are starting to study CPython internals. I'm not sure where you got the impression that it's not-for-mortals but I suspect the people running it would like to know so they can fix it :-). In any case the short answer to your original question is that PEP 342 says that generator finalization calls the generator's close() method, which throws a GeneratorExit into the generator, and PEP 380 says that as a special case, when a GeneratorExit is thrown into a yield from, then this is propagated by calling .close() on the yielded-from iterator (if such a method exists) and then re-raised in the original generator. -n -- Nathaniel J.
