Enumerate function @ Python

class enumerate(object)

| enumerate(iterable) -> iterator for index, value of iterable

|

| Return an enumerate object. iterable must be an other object that supports

| iteration. The enumerate object yields pairs containing a count (from

| zero) and a value yielded by the iterable argument. enumerate is useful

| for obtaining an indexed list: (0, seq[0]), (1, seq[1]), (2, seq[2]), ...

|
