what was the name of that function that would iterate over 2 iterators and let you do:
for x,y in iter2(xx,yy):where xx and yy are 2 iterators of presumably the same length (else the iteration stops at the end of the shorter iterator).

Make an iterator that aggregates elements from each of the iterables.
Returns an iterator of tuples, where the i-th tuple contains the i-th element from each of the argument sequences or iterables. The iterator stops when the shortest input iterable is exhausted. With a single iterable argument, it returns an iterator of 1-tuples. With no arguments, it returns an empty iterator. ...
