Python # ZIP & ENUMERATE at atime?
How to ZIP and ENUMERATE at same time?
def foo():
a = xrange(1, 15000, 1)
b = xrange(15000, 1, -1)
for i, (a, b) in enumerate(zip(a, b,)):
pass
In case if you are about to use zip, enumerate, range - in same go, you can do following which is much faster
def boo():
a = xrange(1, 15000, 1)
b = xrange(15000, 1, -1)
for i, a, b in izip(count(), a, b):
pass
Here is function for testing counting execution time.
def delta(func):
from time import time
t1 = time()
func()
print "execution time : ", time() - t1, 'Sec(s)'
