The docs state that a expression is some combination of value, operator, variable and function. Also you cannot add or combine a generator expression with a value as you would do with 2 + 3 + 4. For example, someone on IRC suggested this all(a == 'a' for a in 'apple') but
1. all is a function/method 2. so (whatever) in this case is a call but obviously it works so it must be a generator object as well.. so.. how does 'all' the function object work with the generator object that's being produced? I can't for example do min 1,2,3 but i can do min (1,2,3) and the () are not integral to a tuple - therefore one could argue that the () are part of the call - not so with a generator Expression where the () are integral to its existence as an object. Could someone clarify further. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
