Georg Brandl <ge...@python.org> added the comment: Well, the object returned is "just" an iterator (which happens to be implemented by a generator-iterator). I wouldn't be so concerned about the repr() of the it.
If you look at the generator PEP, number 255, it says: """Note that when the intent is clear from context, the unqualified name "generator" may be used to refer either to a generator-function or a generator-iterator.""" My experience is that most people use "generator" to mean the actual function. The returned object is mostly called iterator. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8012> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
