Beautiful ideas in programming: generators and continuations
This post summarizes what the author has learned from an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of two important concepts in programming: Python’s generators and Scheme’s continuation.

namedtuple in a post-dataclasses world
namedtuple has been around since forever, and over time, its convenience saw it used far outside its originally intended purpose. With dataclasses now covering part of those use cases, what should one use named tuples for? In this article, we take a look at exactly that, with a few examples from real code.
