Re: [Tutor] unittest for: Raises an exception

Re: [Tutor] How can I replicate a list in a for loop

Re: [Tutor] How does this work (iterating over a function)?

Hi, Let's see what happens iteration by iteration. First iteration: def fibonacci(max): #using a generator a, b = 0, 1 # The value of a is 0 and b is 1, easy :) while a max: yield a # yield a (0) (yield is a keyword that is used like return but returns a generator). This
