Line 115:

The Generator expression example for Icon can be simplified and does not require a co-expression.

<sourcesyntaxhighlight lang=pascal>

local j

every j := (|seq(0) \ 20) ^2 do # Produced the first 20 squares

write(j)

</syntaxhighlight>

</source>

If the idea is to demonstrate really what Icon can do in terms of using generators outside a loop construct, the following may be a better example

<sourcesyntaxhighlight lang=pascal>

# find the first matching element

a := [1,2,3,4]

b := [5,6,2,7]

c := ( !a = !b ) | &null # assign first matching element, or set to &null

</syntaxhighlight>

</source>
