# Generators are very easy to implement, but a bit difficult to understand.

Once the generator's function code reaches a "yield" statement, the generator yields its execution back to the for loop, returning a new value from the set. The generator function can generate as many values (possibly infinite) as it wants, yielding each one in its turn.

# Here is a simple example of a generator function which returns 7 random integers:
