Re: [Python-ideas] A send() built-in function to drive coroutines

At a high level, the behavior of send() would be like this:

def send(coroutine, value): if inspect.getgeneratorstate() == 'GEN_CREATED': next(coroutine) coroutine.send(value)

It's strange to have to sometimes run one iterations of the generator, sometimes two iterations. asyncio.Task is a nice wrapper on top of coroutines, you never use coro.send() explicitly. It makes coroutines easier to use. Victor
