Python’szip() function creates aniterator that will aggregate elements from two or more iterables. You can use the resulting iterator to quickly and consistently solve common programming problems, like creating dictionaries. In this course, you’ll discover the logic behind the Pythonzip() function and how you can use it to solve real-world problems.

By the end of this course, you’ll learn:

• Howzip() works in both Python 3 and Python 2
• How to use the Pythonzip() function forparallel iteration
• How tocreate dictionaries on the fly usingzip()

What’s Included:

• 6 Lessons
• Video Subtitles and Full Transcripts
• 2 Downloadable Resources
• Accompanying Text-Based Tutorial
• Q&A With Python Experts: Ask a Question
• Certificate of Completion
