Example 1: zip python
>>> x = [1, 2, 3]
>>> y = [4, 5, 6]
>>> zipped = zip(x, y)
>>> list(zipped)
[(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)]
>>> x2, y2 = zip(*zip(x, y))
>>> x == list(x2) and y == list(y2)
True
Example 2: python zip function
>>> letters = ['a', 'b', 'c']
>>> numbers = [0, 1, 2]
>>> for l, n in zip(letters, numbers):
... print(f'Letter: {l}')
... print(f'Number: {n}')
...
Letter: a
Number: 0
Letter: b
Number: 1
Letter: c
Number: 2
Example 3: zip python
>>> x = [1, 2, 3]
>>> y = [4, 5, 6]
>>> zipped = zip(x, y)
>>> list(zipped)
[(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)]
>>> x2, y2 = zip(*zip(x, y))
>>> x == list(x2) and y == list(y2)
True
Example 4: zip function python 3
>>> numbers = [1, 2, 3]
>>> letters = ['a', 'b', 'c']
>>> zipped = zip(numbers, letters)
>>> zipped
<zip object at 0x7fa4831153c8>
>>> type(zipped)
<class 'zip'>
>>> list(zipped)
[(1, 'a'), (2, 'b'), (3, 'c')]
