This suggests that you're not allowed to set() a given
context variable more than once in a given generator,
but some of the examples seem to contradict that. So I'm
not sure what this is trying to say.
I believe I can answer this part: the guarantee is that
- the context variable will not be changed while the yield is in effect -- or,
said another way, while the generator is suspended;
- the context variable will not be changed by subgenerators
- the context variable /may/ be changed by normal functions/class methods
(since calling them would be part of the iteration)
