How to do it...

  1. Generators are incredibly simple to create. Define a function, but instead of using return, use the keyword yield:
        def my_generator(x):            while x:                x -= 1                yield x
  1. Create an instance of the function. Don't forget the argument:
        mygen = my_generator(5)
  1. Call the instance as an argument to next():
        next(mygen)
  1. Continue until iteration stops.
