I like the overview given in this Stackoverflow answer [1] (based on an even earlier comment) which classifies different types of continuations:

- Asymmetric or symmetric

- Stackful or stackless

- Delimited or undelimited

- Multi-prompt or single prompt

- Reentrant or non-reentrant

- Clonable or not

Based on that these generators (or semi-coroutines as the article also calls them) seem to be asymmetric, stackful, delimited, single prompt(?), non-reentrant continuations.
