When can you use iterators in Django ORM?
Iterators in Python are basically containers that consist of a countable number of elements. Any object that is an iterator implements two methods which are, the __init__()
and the __next__()
methods. When you are making use of iterators in Django, the best situation to do it is when you have to process results that will require a large amount of memory space. To do this, you can make use of the iterator()
method which basically evaluates a QuerySet and returns the corresponding iterator over the results.
