  • Generator expressions offer a more memory-efficient solution by yielding one value at a time on demand, leading to a constant, tiny memory footprint.
  • While generator expressions are useful for streaming data, passing into built-in functions like sum(), max(), and min(), and chaining multiple operations without storing intermediate lists, they are not suitable for reuse of values or random access.
  • Using generator expressions can optimize code for speed, memory efficiency, and cleaner, more Pythonic syntax, making it a valuable tool in Python development.
