You get None because print() returns None.
Try this:
result = print("Hello")
result is None
Every time you call print(), it returns None. Normally that just gets thrown
away, and no harm is done, but when you do it in a generator expression,
the None values are collected and returned.
Your code:
a = (print("Got {0}".format(num[0])) for num in enumerate(range(10)))
b = list(a)
print(b)
is equivalent to this:
b = []
for two_numbers in enumerate(range(10)):
num = two_numbers[0] # pick the first number
message = "Got {0}".format(num)
result = print(message)
b.append(result)
print(b)
