/// closure-like:
///
/// ```rust
/// #![feature(generators, generator_trait)]
///
/// use std::ops::{Generator, GeneratorState};
///
/// fn main() {
///     let mut generator = || {
///         yield 1;
///         return "foo"
///     };
///
///     match unsafe { generator.resume() } {
///         GeneratorState::Yielded(1) => {}
///         _ => panic!("unexpected return from resume"),
///     }

///         GeneratorState::Complete("foo") => {}
///         _ => panic!("unexpected return from resume"),

    /// which point this function will return.

    /// The function is unsafe because it can be used on an immovable generator.
    /// After such a call, the immovable generator must not move again, but

    /// has been yielded out. Generators in this state are available for
    /// resumption at a later point.
    ///
    /// If `Complete` is returned then the generator has completely finished
    /// with the value provided. It is invalid for the generator to be resumed
    /// again.
    ///

    ///
    /// This function may panic if it is called after the `Complete` variant has
    /// been returned previously. While generator literals in the language are
    /// guaranteed to panic on resuming after `Complete`, this is not guaranteed
    /// for all implementations of the `Generator` trait.
