Hi Anthony, Ok, I see that now. I know you're not necessarily saying what's been proposed is a good idea but I can see a benefit in pythonic style generators as a separate piece of functionality, implementing a yield function, has this ever been discussed before? My apologies if this is the case I've not seen it since I've been following this list.
I know there is the SPL Iterator, but just as in the example you provided implementations *can* be verbose and convoluted.
