Hi, I am converting PDF into text file, I am using following code.

from pypdf2 import PdfFileReader 

def read_pdf(pdfFileName):
	
    pdf = PdfFileReader(pdfFileName) 

    yield from (pg.extractText() for pg in pdf.pages)

for i in read_pdf('book.pdf'):
     print(i)

I want to avoid for loop , I also tried to create another function and call read_pdf() inside that new function using yield from but I think I am missing real picture here
