The author said somewhere else in the thread they want to switch to generators implemented with effects eventually.
- deltaonefour 4y agoThis makes sense. So basically if you style your programming such that a list is never materialized you can achieve zero allocation based programming. However for things like "sorting" this can never fully be achieved. You cannot sort a generator. Every iterator counterpart needs a list counterpart or there will be literally certain computations that are impossible.
