What is the 'yield' keyword in JavaScript? code example

Example 1: js yield*

function* g1() {
  yield 2;
  yield 3;
  yield 4;
}

function* g2() {
  yield 1;
  yield* g1();
  yield 5;
}

const iterator = g2();

console.log(iterator.next()); // {value: 1, done: false}
console.log(iterator.next()); // {value: 2, done: false}
console.log(iterator.next()); // {value: 3, done: false}
console.log(iterator.next()); // {value: 4, done: false}
console.log(iterator.next()); // {value: 5, done: false}
console.log(iterator.next()); // {value: undefined, done: true}

Example 2: javascript yield

function* foo(index) {
  while (index < 2) {
    yield index;
    index++;
  }
}

const iterator = foo(0);

console.log(iterator.next().value);
// expected output: 0

console.log(iterator.next().value);
// expected output: 1
