[Solved] python generator as expression [closed]

by


Well, one reason is that the assignment operator = must have an expression on the right, not a (series of) statement(s). You might then ask why this is so, and I guess it is chosen to limit the complexity of the parser, and to disallow what one might consider confusing code.

Note that your toto can be spelled out in a valid way like so:

toto = (
            m
    for m in range(5)
        if m < 4
)

(line breaks and indentation only there to emphasize that this is very close to the same structure as in your invalid code).
