Simpler way to run a generator function without caring about items

Setting up a for loop for this could be relatively expensive, keeping in mind that a for loop in Python is fundamentally successive execution of simple assignment statements; you’ll be executing n (number of items in generator) assignments, only to discard the assignment targets afterwards. You can instead feed the generator to a zero length … Read more

Why does redefining a variable used in a generator give strange results? [duplicate]

The answer is in the PEP of the generator expressions, in particular the session Early Binding vs Late biding: After much discussion, it was decided that the first (outermost) for-expression should be evaluated immediately and that the remaining expressions be evaluated when the generator is executed. So basically the array in: x for x in … Read more

Python SyntaxError: (“‘return’ with argument inside generator”,)

You cannot use return with a value to exit a generator in Python 2, or Python 3.0 – 3.2. You need to use yield plus a return without an expression: if response.error: self.error(“Error while retrieving the status”) self.finish() yield error return In the loop itself, use yield again: for line in response.body.split(“\n”): if line != … Read more

How to test API request failures with Redux Saga?

Mark’s answer is correct. Middleware executes those instructions. But this makes your life easier: in the test, you can provide whatever you want as the argument to next(), and the generator function will receive it as a result of yield. This is exactly what saga middleware does (except that it actually fires up a request … Read more

Return or yield from a function that calls a generator?

You’re probably looking for Generator Delegation (PEP380) For simple iterators, yield from iterable is essentially just a shortened form of for item in iterable: yield item def generator(iterable): for i in iterable: yield do_something(i) def generate_all(): yield from generator(get_the_list()) It’s pretty concise and also has a number of other advantages, such as being able to … Read more
