Question

I have two lists and I want to create a new one.

For instance

a = ["Street zero", "Street one", "Street two"]
b = [0,1,2]

newlist [0][0] = "Street zero"
newlist [1][1] = "Street one"
newlist [2][2] = "Street two"

How can I achieve this ?

Thanks

Answer 1

Do you mean enumerate?

>>> list(enumerate(a))
[(0, 'Street zero'), (1, 'Street one'), (2, 'Street two')]

Or zip:

>>> zip(b, a)
[(0, 'Street zero'), (1, 'Street one'), (2, 'Street two')]

(that uses items from b as indexes)
