6.2.9. Yield expressions
end of 1st paragraph:
"Using a yield expression in a function’s body causes that function to be a generator."
NO!
As the very next sentence explains, a generator is what's returned by such a function, not the function itself.
Basically, it should be sufficient to add the word "function" to the end of that sentence: "... generator function." However, this error does NOT exist in 3.0 to 3.2 - just in 3.3 to 3.6, so I suggest just using the same wording as 3.0 to 3.2:
"Using a yield expression in a function definition is sufficient to cause that definition to create a generator function instead of a normal function." |
