Have you ever worked with a massive dataset in Python, one so large that loading it all into memory at once would crash your program? Or perhaps you wanted to process items in a sequence one by one, without needing to store the entire sequence beforehand? This is where the yield keyword in Python shines, transforming ordinary functions into powerful generators. Think of a regular Python function. When it encounters a return statement, it finishes its execution and sends a value back to the caller. Any local variables and the function's state are essentially forgotten. Now, imagine a function that can pause its execution, remember its state, and then resume exactly where it left off. That's the essence of a generator function, made possible by the yield keyword. How yield Works its Magic: When a Python function contains the yield keyword, it doesn't behave like a regular function when you call it. Instead of executing the code immediately, it returns a special object called ...
