> Weird that the yield statement is conflated with coroutines instead of iterators/generators. The concept of coroutines (Melvin E. Conway in 1963; who was also the source of FORK/JOIN) predates by a decade that of iterators/generators (which come from Alphard and CLU). The term "yield" had already been used for many years for coroutines before being used for iterators/generators. Usually the use of "yield" is not ambiguous, because the context is clear.
