generator iterator

An object created by a generator function or a generator expression.

Each yield temporarily suspends processing, remembering the execution state (including local variables and pending try-statements). When the generator iterator resumes, it picks up where it left off (in contrast to functions which start fresh on every invocation).

Generator iterators also implement the send() method to send a value into the suspended generator, and the throw() method to raise an exception at the point where the generator was paused. See Generator-iterator methods.
