Comment on Retiring a Great Interview Problemparent

He is using parentheses instead of square brackets, so the code is actually using a generator expression which will produce each value lazily.

Is mydict.items() also lazy?

In Python 3 yes, in Python 2 no. In Python 2 you'd say mydict.iteritems() if you were concerned about it.
