I often see the phrase "coroutine" but without explicit mention if symmetric (greenlet) or asymmetric (Lua).
Then when I hear myself quibbling about "full generators" then I mean generators that are made up of a few functions that all can yield to the caller of this generator.
Question: is "full generators" equivalent to "asymmetric coroutine"?
Question 2: when people talk about coroutines, is "asymmetric" the default here?
The reason that I ask is my fear to create problems when answering to messages with different default meanings in mind.
