Summary:                    Iterator as local fanction
Description: 
If try to implement the iterator as local function:
def FromTo(from : int, to : int) : IEnumerable[int]
{
  for (mutable i = from; i <= to; ++i)
    yield i;
}

ngg generate this error:
error : yield used in a function returning void (it should be
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerator[T] or
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable[T])
error : yield used in a function returning void (it should be
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerator[T] or
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable[T])

I guess it is designed this way:

foo () : IEnumerable [int]
{
  def several (x) {
      yield x;
      yield x + 1;
      yield x + 3;
  } 
  several (3);
  seveal (100);
}

so you use local function just as an utility to make a generator from your
global function
