1- every writes( ! name) will print out "Jose Jimenez"
but,
2- writes( ! name) will print out only the first letter "J"
the ! is a generator. Generators doesn't produce more values if they succeed
and the surrounding expression doesn't "ask" then for more. In case 2
above. ! name produces J in the first time. writes take the J and prinst it
out, succeeds and then go home happy. Done ! :-)
in case 1 however, after the scenario above, "every" that is surrounding
(!name) always fail to force the generator to produce all of the possible
values..
