Using a custom name like "cofunction" may confuse users coming from other programming languages. I prefer to keep "coroutine", but I agree that we should make some effort to define the different categories of "Python coroutines".
I should perhaps point out that "cofunction" is not just an arbitrary word I made up to replace "coroutine". It is literally a kind of function, and is meant to be thought of that way. As for confusing new users, I would think that, as an unfamiliar word, it would point out that there is something they need to look up and learn about. Whereas they may think they already know what a "coroutine" is and not bother to look further. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
