Generators in Python

This course covers one of the more difficult topics in computer programming. Explaining it step by step throughout the course, using code samples and detailed explanation will provide you with the desired in–depth understanding of this topic, not only in Python but in other programming languages as well. The coding exercises this course includes will allow you to assess the level of understanding you achieve.  In addition to generators, this course also covers the generator expression topic.

The course starts with a general for the generator class and for the common simple way for getting an object of that type by using the yield statement. The continue with a more detailed explanation for the indirect code changes the compiler introduces when using the yield statement, and for what happens when iterating a generator object. The course continues with explaining how to create a generator expression and explains the main difference between a generator expression and a list comprehension. The course concludes with a short overview of the common cases in which we will probably prefer the use of generators.

This course, like all of our other courses, evolves over time. Taking this course, we will provide you full support, and provide you with additional video clips and slides whenever needed.
