Hello,

Please don't top post.

Generator expressions are different from generator functions. They are 
both generators but use a different syntax.

generator function:

def func(iterable):
   for i in iterable: yield i


the generator expression version would be

(i for i in iterable)


Both have their use cases but everytime you can actually use an 
generator expression, it's probably the correct thing to do.

Cheers,

jm
