@shellhub Thanks for the review and merge, I was hoping to improve the algorithm by using the generator as a part of my Hacktoberfest contribution for #2510. What was the reason for removing it for the regular iteration over a list?

i.e. (what I had before)

for data in (elements_list[i] for i in range(1, list_length)):

This way need to generate a list and then iterate. It's slow.

Thanks, good catch, @shellhub. That was informative! I only ran timeit against the list slicing. I should have checked the regular iteration as well. I guess it's also better to keep it simple! 😃

How we Iris dataset from an online source. Read the dataset into a data structure, preferably
in a 2D array??? Anyone help me please its my assignment

current = current.next
