Hi all
This is purely academic, but I would like to understand the following -
>>>
>>> a = [('x', 'y')]
>>>
>>> s = []
>>> for b, c in a:
... s.append((b, c))
...
>>> s
[('x', 'y')]
This is what I expected.
>>>
>>> s = []
>>> s.append(((b, c) for b, c in a))
>>> s
[<generator object <genexpr> at 0x0000019FC3F863C0>]
>>>
I expected the same as the first one.
I understand the concept that a generator does not return a value until
you call next() on it, but I have not grasped the essential difference
between the above two constructions.
TIA for any insights.
