consider a nested loop algorithm -

Now, suppose I don't want to use i = 0 and j = 0 as initial values, but
some other values i = N and j = M, and I want to iterate through all
10,000 values in sequence - is there a neat python-like way to this? I
realize I can do things like use a variable for k in range(10000): and
then derive values for i and j from k, but I'm wondering if there's
something less clunky.
You could define your own generator function that yields values
in whatever order you want:
def my_generator():
yield 9
yield 100
for i in range(200, 250):
yield i
yield 5
Thanks, I'll look at that but I think it just moves the clunkiness from
one place in the code to another.
