Functions that use yield
are known as "generators". Before Python 3.3, generators cannot return
values. Similarly,
functions that use return
cannot use yield
. Doing so will cause a SyntaxError
.
Either upgrade your version of Python to a version >= 3.3, or don’t use both return and yield in a function.

num = 0
while num < n:
yield num
num += 1
return num #Noncompliant
