A real use case wouldn't be iterating over hardcoded tuples in the
comprehensions, it would be something more like:
def example(iterable1, iterable2):
comp1 = yield from [(yield x) for x in iterable1]
comp2 = yield from [(yield x) for x in iterable2]
return comp1, comp2
Defining an interesting for loop isn't the point of the example though
- it's just to show that if you're inside a generator, you can already
make a subgenerator comprehension do something sensible by sticking
"yield from" in front of it (and have actually been able to do so
since 3.3, when "yield from" was first introduced).
Cheers,
Nick.
