Turns out JS can throw an error on a line like return 42;

generator - loops forever sleeping 1s at a time, and when you try to stop it, it waits 1s and then throws an error.

iteration - calls generator via a for-await and attempts to return within the iteration. This forces iteration to wait for generators finally section to run which includes a 1s await!

// -- bit excessive for this case, but the example isn't realistic in the first place
export const probability = () => Math.random(); 

// -- some other file
export const diceRoll = () => Math.ceil(probability() * 6);

// -- some other file
export const coinFlip = () => probability() > 0.5 ? 'heads': 'tails';

// -- shared state can be stored however you like (this is just one example)
