Quite how they managed to come up with such an utter abortion of an
implementation is anyones guess. They should have taken a look at how
Python does it - the function returns an iterator and you call "yield <result>"
inside it. Done.

But morons conducting job interviews will still ask about them even though
their company code doesn't contain them either.

I can't wait for contracts and reflection in C++! 

Said no one , ever.
