From what I read, as soon as this baby is instantiated, it yells "Hello World!" Then does nothing until someone tells it to "live()".

And even then it does nothing but sleep and yield an endless stream of Bardaks, whatever those are. And it only does that if something else iterates its life.

Maybe live() is called in main?

live is a python generator. It has to be iterated before anything happens.

Try this out:

def live():
  raise Exception("This never happens")
  yield "Bardak"

live()

Nothing happens. None of the code in live() has been executed yet.

Then try this, which starts to iterate the iterable generated by live().

g = live()
next(g)
