I think thats what enumerate does...
>>> for x,y in enumerate([1,3,5]):
... print x,y
...
0 1
1 3
2 5

Yep, looks like what you need.

Wonderful, thank you all of you.
zip, enumerate, and count seem to do everything I want, though I do think
for f, x in bunch_of_files, range(z):
is a little more intuitive than
for f, x in zip(bunch_of_files, range(z)):
Thanks

In the general case use zip():
for f, x in zip(bunch_of_files, range(z)):
In this cas
You have a much simpler solution !
As this is a most common task to iterate on a sequence while keeping
track of the index, there is an object just for that :
for i,x in enumerate(iterable):
# Here "i" is the index and "x" the element
Also, to get some "advance" iteration schemes, have a lot at

It's not fully clear to me what you want to do. Do you
assume:
you have two list with the same size
L1 = [1,2,3]
L2 = [11,22,33]
you can zip the L1 and L2 into L
L = zip(L1,L2) # L = [(1,11),(2,22),(3,33)]
then you can process:
for x in L:
dosomething(x[0])...
dosomething(x[1])...
I'm not so sure about your problem but
If you want to do som
