You're welcome!  But what you need here is a simple loop -- no generators
needed, really.  Speed issues are uncertain -- benchmark things both ways --
but a simple loop is probably going to be *clearer*, and I think that
matters.  There are occasions to use generators, of course, but when some
task can be handled just as well without such powerful tools then I believe
that relying on simpler tools can be preferable.
