remember that generator functions simply return objects with methods that handle next operations run by for loops at each level, and don't produce any results until iterated; and
~ Unknown
If you wish to use this method, you can avoid loops by coding instance attribute assignments as assignments to attribute dictionary keys. That is, use self.__dict__['name'] = x, not self.name = x; because you're not assigning to __dict__ itself, this avoids the loop:
~ Unknown
