Example 6-14

Version: Kindle

Example is meant to demonstrate use of yeildAll, yet does not reference this function whatsoever. I suspect that:

yield(generateSequence...

Should in fact read:

yieldAll(generateSequence...

Note from the Author or Editor:
Yes, that example contains multiple errors. It should be:

val sequence = sequence {
val start = 0
yield(start)
yieldAll(1..5 step 2)
yieldAll(generateSequence(8) { it * 3 })
}

println(sequence.take(8).toList()) // [0, 1, 3, 5, 8, 24, 72, 216]

The code in the GitHub repository has been updated with this example.
