Question

I would like to iterate + enumerate over two lists in Python. The following code looks ugly. Is there any better solution?

for id, elements in enumerate(itertools.izip(as, bs)):
  a = elements[0]
  b = elements[1]
  # do something with id, a and b

Thank you.

Answer 1

You can assign a and b during the for loop:

for id, (a, b) in enumerate(itertools.izip(as, bs)):
  # do something with id, a and b
