Suppose I have two differently-sized lists

a = [1, 2, 3]
b = ['a', 'b']

What is a Pythonic way to get a list of tuples c of all the possible combinations of one element from a and one element from b?

>>> print c
[(1, 'a'), (1, 'b'), (2, 'a'), (2, 'b'), (3, 'a'), (3, 'b')]

The order of elements in c does not matter.

The solution with two for loops is trivial, but it doesn’t seem particularly Pythonic.
