TypeError from Python 3 async for loop

Question

I\'m learning about Python\'s relatively new async features. I found this in PEP 492:

The following is a utility class that transforms a regular iterable

Answer 1

The code you are using works with python 3.5.2+.

From Python 3.5.2 __aiter__ can directly return asynchronous iterators. More here

The error you were receiving was because of the older python(3.5.1) and it was therefore returning the wrong type.
