Hello,
Its not obvious to me how to do this. I would like to iterate using a tuple as
an index. Say I have two equivalently sized arrays, what I do now seems
inelegant:
for index, list1_item in enumerate(firstlist):
do_something(list1_item, secondlist[index])
I would like something more like this:
for list1_item, list2_item in (some_kind_of_expression):
do_something(list1_item, list2_item)
Practically, I'm not so sure B is better than A, but the second would be a
little more aesthetic, to me, at least.
Any thoughts on what "some_kind_of_expression" would be?

Use 'zip', (or itertools.izip):
>>> for n, a in zip([1,2,3,4,5],["A","B","C","D","E"]):
... print n, a
...
1 A
2 B
3 C
4 D
5 E
