What is a generator?
The generator is a function that contains a special keyword yield. When called, the generator function returns a generator. You can use the Send,throw,close method to let the generator interact with the outside world.
The generator is also an iterator, but it is not just an iterator, it has the next method and behaves exactly the same as an iterator. So the generator can also be used in the Python loop,
How do I use it?
First look at an example:
# !/usr/bin/python # -*-coding:utf-8-*- def Flatten (nested): for inch Nested: for inch sublist: yield = [[1,2],[3,4],[5,6]] for in flatten (nested): Print num,
The result is 1,2,3,4,5,6
Recursive generators:
#!/usr/bin/python#-*-coding:utf-8-*-defflatten2 (nested):Try: forSublistinchNested: forElementinchFlatten2 (sublist):yieldelementexcept: yieldnested forNuminchFlatten2 ([[1,2,3],2,4,[5,[6],7]]): PrintNum
The result is: 1 2 3 2 4 5 6 7
Let's take a look at the nature of the generator
First look at the following:
#!/usr/bin/python#-*-coding:utf-8-*-defsimple_generator ():yield1PrintSimple_generatordefrepeater (value): whiletrue:new= (yieldvalue)ifNew is notNone:value =New R= Repeater (42)PrintR.next ()PrintR.send ('hello,world!')
The result is:
<function Simple_generator at 0x10c76f6e0>
42
hello,world!
Can be seen:
1) generator is a function
2) Generator has next method
3) The generator can use the Send method and external interaction.
