Introduction to Coroutines
Explore the concept of coroutines introduced in C++20 and understand how co_await and co_yield extend function execution to support asynchronous programming and lazy evaluation. Learn to implement generator functions that produce data streams efficiently without blocking program execution.

Coroutines are functions that can suspend and resume their execution while keeping their state. The evolution of functions goes one step further in C++20.
What I present in this section as a new idea in C++20 is actually quite old. The term coroutine was coined by Melvin Conway; He used it in his publication on compiler construction in 1963. Likewise, ...
