    SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Verify that parenthesis are required when used as a keyword argument value

    >>> dict(a = i for i in xrange(10))

Verify that parenthesis are required when used as a keyword argument value

    >>> dict(a = (i for i in xrange(10))) #doctest: +ELLIPSIS

    >>> x = 5
    >>> list(g)
    [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]

Verify that the outermost for-expression makes an immediate check
for iterability

    >>> (i for i in 6)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#4>", line 1, in -toplevel-
        (i for i in 6)
    TypeError: iteration over non-sequence

    0

Verify that syntax error's are raised for genexps used as lvalues

    >>> (y for y in (1,2)) = 10
    Traceback (most recent call last):

########### Tests borrowed from or inspired by test_generators.py ############

Make a generator that acts like range()

    >>> yrange = lambda n:  (i for i in xrange(n))
    >>> list(yrange(10))
    [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

Generators always return to the most recent caller:

    >>> def creator():
    ...     r = yrange(5)
    ...     print "creator", r.next()
    ...     return r
    >>> def caller():
    ...     r = creator()
    ...     for i in r:
    ...             print "caller", i
    >>> caller()
    creator 0
    caller 1
    caller 2
    caller 3
    caller 4

Generators can call other generators:

    >>> def zrange(n):
    ...     for i in yrange(n):
    ...         yield i
    >>> list(zrange(5))
    [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]


Verify that a gen exp cannot be resumed while it is actively running:

    >>> g = (me.next() for i in xrange(10))
    >>> me = g
    >>> me.next()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#30>", line 1, in -toplevel-
        me.next()
      File "<pyshell#28>", line 1, in <generator expression>
        g = (me.next() for i in xrange(10))
    ValueError: generator already executing

Verify exception propagation

    >>> g = (10 // i for i in (5, 0, 2))
    >>> g.next()
    2
    >>> g.next()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#37>", line 1, in -toplevel-
        g.next()
      File "<pyshell#35>", line 1, in <generator expression>
        g = (10 // i for i in (5, 0, 2))
    ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
    >>> g.next()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#38>", line 1, in -toplevel-
        g.next()
    StopIteration

Make sure that None is a valid return value

    >>> list(None for i in xrange(10))
    [None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None]

Check that generator attributes are present

    >>> g = (i*i for i in range(3))
    >>> expected = set(['gi_frame', 'gi_running', 'next'])
    >>> set(attr for attr in dir(g) if not attr.startswith('__')) >= expected
    True

    >>> print g.next.__doc__
    x.next() -> the next value, or raise StopIteration
    >>> import types
    >>> isinstance(g, types.GeneratorType)
    True

Check the __iter__ slot is defined to return self

    >>> iter(g) is g
    True

Verify that the running flag is set properly

    >>> g = (me.gi_running for i in (0,1))
    >>> me = g
    >>> me.gi_running
    0
    >>> me.next()
    1
    >>> me.gi_running
    0

Verify that genexps are weakly referencable

    >>> import weakref
    >>> g = (i*i for i in range(4))
    >>> wr = weakref.ref(g)
    >>> wr() is g
    True
    >>> p = weakref.proxy(g)
    >>> list(p)
    [0, 1, 4, 9]
