Python beginners example: compare array elements

#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# Compares elements at same 
# index in 2 different arrays
# and so called generates tuple of 
# that value, index, array number
# however if both numbers are equal
# returns zero simply

# Prime condition for correct results
# length(arr1) == length(arr2)

def compare_array_elements(arr1, arr2):
    for l in range(len(arr1)):
        if arr1[l] > arr2[l]:
            yield (arr1[l], l, 1)
        elif arr1[l] < arr2[l]:
            yield (arr2[l], l, 2)
        else:
            yield(0)
