I think rzed (sorry for bad quoting) was (partly)making the point that we could have more explicitly showed how .next() worked. I'm fine with the current example, because I think the examples should solve problems at face value, and here it's very natural to use a loop with an iterator/generator (never mind the underlying magic), but I do think some future example should show how one can have more control over getting values from an iterator. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for a deal?
