Issue24400 changed some of the documentation wording around generators. I
don't know if there is still interest in applying the other parts of this patch.

This slipped under my radar. After starting work on this again, I realize that
it would make sense to complete issue 15476 first. The reason is that it would
improve the process of referencing code object in the generator docs (Terry's
suggestion) once code

Note to reviewers: changing to needs patch because I want to make changes to
the latest patch before this is reviewed (e.g. to the index directives). I
should be able to do this by the end of the weekend.

Up until today, I had assumed that it was the generator.__next__ method that
was associated with the compiled body. But in writing my response, I
investigated and discovered

I created issue 15476 to add code object to the glossary.
Generator functions must have a special __call__ method that simply creates
and returns a generator instance with the code object attached (instead of
executing the code).
Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:
I think the current entry calling a generator function a generator is wrong, so
I appreciate your patch. Generator functions return instances of class
'generator'*. I personally refer to generators as generator-iterators about as
often as I

Thanks a lot for the excellent feedback. I'll update the patch to incorporate
it.
One background note: I tried not to be too strict about using generator
iterator or generator function in place of generator in the general docs

Attaching updated patch incorporating feedback.
It would be nice to have a good term for the generator function code object
associated with a generator to distinguish it from the original generator
function as you point out.
There
New submission from Chris Jerdonek chris.jerdo...@gmail.com:
The documentation on generators (outside of PEP 255) does not currently educate
the reader on the more specific generator function and generator iterator
terminology, or at least not in any consistent or systematic way.
