A generator can accept a value from the consumer. So, If I have a counter: c = counter() I can send it a value: c.send(9) > if val is not None: > count = val The generator tests to see it it received anything, and if it does, resets count to what it received (in this case, 9). > else: > count += 1 Otherwise, it just increments count on each call. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
