Summary  
This chapter covers generator expressions as a lazy, memory-efficient way to filter and process sequence items one at a time based on a condition.

General domain of usage  
Large-scale data processing

Generator expressions provide a **concise** and **memory-efficient** way to filter and process sequences in Python. Unlike list comprehensions, generator expressions do not build the entire result in memory; instead, they yield items one at a time as you iterate over them. This is especially useful when you want to work with large datasets or when you only need to process a subset of the data matching a particular condition. Filtering for specific values, such as even numbers, is a common use case for generator expressions. You will now apply this concept in a practical coding task.
