Dear all,

I sometimes want to use an infinite while loop with access to the loop
index, like this:

def naturals():
i = 0
while True:
yield i
y += 1

for i in naturals():
print(i)

I assume a function like 'naturals' already exists, or a similar
construction for the same purpose. But what is it called?

for i, item in enumerate(iterable):
    ....
