When managing resources in Python, you sometimes need to coordinate multiple context managers at once. This is common when you want to ensure that several resources—such as files, timers, or configuration changes—are managed safely and efficiently, even if an error occurs. You can nest context managers using multiple `with` statements, or use a single `with` statement and separate them with commas. In this challenge, you will practice combining both **class-based** and **generator-based** context managers to manage two resources at the same time. This will help you understand how Python handles entering and exiting each context, and how exceptions are propagated and handled.
