Okay, but my point is that the final user should not be expected to know about those implementation details. The one obvious way to me is to have an inspect.isgenerator, analogous to inspect.isfunction, inspect.ismethod, etc. The typical use case is in writing a documentation/debugging tool. Now I was writing a decorator that needed to discriminate in the case it was decorating a regular function versus a generator.
