Generators may seem like a weird detour for this late in the course. But in this presentation, we show how they are used in graphics and animation.Generators are a specific example of a concept known…

In this presentation we will review, generators which lead into the last major topic of the course (coroutines). Once again, this will involve a lot of visualization.We also start off this…

While generators are coroutines, the communication only goes one way: from the child to the calling parent. In this video we show how to reverse this communication, passing down information from the…

In the previous video, we said that generators are a type of coroutine. In this video, we explore this idea. We use yield statements to write generators that are a little more sophisticated than…

In the previous video we introduced the term coroutine but did not actually define it. In this video we give a more concrete definition. As a result, we see that coroutines and generators have a lot…

This video is not optional because the material is advanced. It is optional because this video series has run long and this topic is less important for you to know. While we have not talked about…

Generators take iterators as input, but they also produce one as output. In this video we show how to chain iterators together, doing complex operations on our data.

In this video we talk about two very famous generators: map and filter. We show how to use these to replace writing code with a for-loop.

Now that we know how generators work, it is time to write our own. In this video we show how easy it is. We just take out experience with the accumulator pattern and replace the accumulator with a…

Generators look like normal functions, but they do not behave like them. In this video we show how to visualize them, using the Python Tutor.

Making iterator classes is hard. In this video, we show an alternative, allowing us to write the iterator as a ‘function”. This requires the addition of a new python statement, the yield…
