Yield values on demand.
Python: Use a generator to produce a sequence without storing all intermediate values.
def squares(limit):
for value in range(limit):
yield value * value
print(list(squares(4)))Expected output EXAMPLE
[0, 1, 4, 9]
Details
Save as snippet.py and run python3 snippet.py. Uses the Python standard library. Use a generator to produce a sequence without storing all intermediate values.

Test inputs, results and environment
The exact published code ran in a dedicated Linux test container with prepared inputs. Unprivileged snippet process, external networking disabled, read-only root filesystem, and a fresh temporary working directory. Fixtures and output records are isolated from the application database. Testing covers this example and its stated checks, not every input, operating system, or runtime version. The Linux container shares its host's kernel; this is not a native Windows test.
