[issue5968] Generator expression bug?

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

Questions and discussions like this should be directed to the
python-list, mirrored on newsgroups comp.lang.python and
gmane.comp.python.general (or possibly other forums).

I will say this much but *only* this much here:
1. Generators are iterators; by definition, iterator.__init__ returns
itself.  Nearly all iterators are single use.
2. Generator functions and their abbreviated form, generator
expressions, create generators.  To re-iterate, re-call the generator
function or re-execute the generator expression.

It is possible that discussion elsewhere would generator specific doc
improvement suggestions that could be submitted in a new issue.
