+// 310-Gen-VariablesInGenerator.cpp
+// Shows how to use variables when creating generators.
+
+// Note that using variables inside generators is dangerous and should
+// be done only if you know what you are doing, because the generators
+// _WILL_ outlive the variables -- thus they should be either captured
+// by value directly, or copied by the generators during construction.
