Introduction to Generators
Generators simplify lazy evaluation by providing a concise and readable way to create iterators. While an iterator is implemented as a class with the __iter__()
and __next__()
methods, a generator is implemented as a function that uses the yield
keyword to produce values one at a time. Generators maintain their state automatically between calls, making them more intuitive and efficient for many use cases.
A generator is a special type of function that:
- Uses the
yield
keyword instead ofreturn
; - Pauses execution and retains its state when yield is called;
- Resumes execution from where it left off when the generator is called again.
def example_generator(): yield "First value" yield "Second value" yield "Third value" gen = example_generator() print(next(gen)) # Output: First value print(next(gen)) # Output: Second value print(next(gen)) # Output: Third value
import random def limited_dice_roller(num_rolls): for _ in range(num_rolls): yield random.randint(1, 6) # Using the limited dice roller print("Rolling the dice:") for roll in limited_dice_roller(5): print(f"Rolled: {roll}")
Differences Between Iterator and Generator

In the previous task, you implemented an infinite dice roller using a custom iterator class. Now, you will simplify the same functionality by using a generator function. Generators provide a concise and readable way to produce values lazily using the yield
keyword.
- Define the generator function. Use the yield keyword inside the
dice_roller
function to produce random dice rolls between1
and6
. Use therandom.randint()
function to simulate each roll. - Call the
dice_roller()
function to create a generator object and assign it to the variabledice_generator
. - Use a
for
loop withenumerate()
to iterate over the generator. Stop the iteration after10
rolls using anif
condition and thebreak
statement.
