Generator in Python

Generators in Python are special functions that use the 'yield' keyword to return values on demand, which helps save memory compared to normal functions that return all values at once. They are particularly useful for processing large data sets efficiently, as they generate values one at a time without storing the entire data set in memory. However, generators do not support indexing or slicing operations since they provide values only when requested.

generator in python
=================================
=>generator is one of the function
=>The generator function always contains yield keyword
=>If the function contains return statement then it is called Normal Function. Here
return
statement of function can return More Number of Values if required
=>If the function contains yield keyword then it is called generator. Here yield
statement
returns the value only on demand and reduces the memory space.
=>Syntax:
def function_name(start,stop,step):
----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
yield value
----------------
=>The 'yield' key word is used for giving the value back to function call from
function defintion and continue the function execution until condition becomes
false.
=>The advantage of generators over functions concept is that it save lot of memory
space in the case large sampling of data. In otherwords Functions gives all the
result at once and it take more memory space where as generators gives one value at
a time when programmer requested and takes minimized memory space.
=>On the object of generator, we can't perform Indexing and Slicing Operations bcoz
They supply the value only on demand.

Writing Memory Efficient Programs Using Generators in Python
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----
When writing code in Python, wise use of memory is important, especially when
dealing with large amounts of data. One way to do this is to use Python generators.
Generators are like special functions that help to save memory by processing data
one at a time, rather than all at once.

The logic behind memory efficient functions and Python generators is to create
functions that generate values on the fly, avoiding the need to store the entire
data set in memory. This is especially useful when dealing with large data sets.
