Thank you. It seems too complicated...
I understand that 'val = yield from xs' is completely different from::

   for x in xs:
      ret = yield x
   val = x

Return value is propagated by StopIteration, like:

   it = iter(xs)
   try:
     while 1:
       yield next(it)
   except StopIteration as ex:
     val = ex.value


Thanks.
