My tutorial and take on C++20 coroutines

So, given sibling comments on stack and function calls, this:

    skip_iter(int skip, int stop)
      for(int i=0;i<stop;i++)

Wouldn't work with complex types, boxed integers and so on? Because calling postfix ++ would be a function/method call?

Stackless coroutines can call other functions just fine (they would completely unusable otherwise). What they can't do is delegate suspension to any called function, i.e. any called function must return before the coroutine can yield as exactly one activation frame (the top level) can be suspended.

That's just a simple example. I think the following should work, possibly with modification for forwarding:

    class Stooge {...};

    CoroutineIterator<Stooge> three_stooges() {
       co_yield Stooge("Larry");
       co_yield Stooge("Curly");
       co_yield Stooge("Moe");
    }
