The "yield" statement
*********************

   yield_stmt ::= yield_expression

A "yield" statement is semantically equivalent to a yield expression.
The yield statement can be used to omit the parentheses that would
otherwise be required in the equivalent yield expression statement.
For example, the yield statements

   yield 
   yield from 

are equivalent to the yield expression statements

   (yield )
   (yield from )

Yield expressions and statements are only used when defining a
*generator* function, and are only used in the body of the generator
function.  Using yield in a function definition is sufficient to cause
that definition to create a generator function instead of a normal
function.

For full details of "yield" semantics, refer to the Yield expressions
section.
