+Generator Objects
+-----------------
+
+Generator objects are what Python uses to implement generator iterators. They
+are normally created by iterating over a function that yields values, rather
+than explicitly calling :cfunc:`PyGen_New`.
+
+
+.. ctype:: PyGenObject
+
+   The C structure used for generator objects.
+
+
+.. cvar:: PyTypeObject PyGen_Type
+
+   The type object corresponding to generator objects
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyGen_Check(ob)
+
+   Return true if *ob* is a generator object; *ob* must not be *NULL*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyGen_CheckExact(ob)
+
+   Return true if *ob*'s type is *PyGen_Type* is a generator object; *ob* must not
+   be *NULL*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyGen_New(PyFrameObject *frame)
+
+   Create and return a new generator object based on the *frame* object. A
+   reference to *frame* is stolen by this function. The parameter must not be
+   *NULL*.
