The current experimental generator functionality breaks myStats.

[EclectickMedia]

Description

The iteration of the master branchat db9553f breaks the myStats functionality when the generators are exited via a keyboard interrupt (see the execution snippet).

I haven't looked to far into it, and will move to that next, but the commit at db9553f is likely fine to be pulled to the repository. This would allow for cleaner repository history via the branch and pull idiom.

If this issue is not overly concerning, the afore mentioned commit can be pulled.

This even shows the broken functionality upon KeyboardInterrupt at the end of the snippet

It seems this bug wasnt introduced by your code...the master branch has the same issue.
So i'll merge this code and keep the ticket open so we can fix it at a later stage.

p.s. great work btw ! :)

What can I say, I'm a bit of a perfectionist.

I believe I know how to fix the issue, but I may just have to play with it for a bit.

db9553f merged into master.

So, I did a bit of poking around and found what our issue is.

No matter what, when _sig_handler gets called, it does not access an instanced object of MyStats (i.e during execution of verbose_ping or quiet_ping even after the module level declaration of myStats has been instanced and modified, _sig_handler doesn't access said instance).

I'm still looking for a solution however.....

Making myStats global (in verbose_ping() and _signal_handler() )
Temporary fix.... but we should find another way to do this.
