Very nice use of python syntax

Too neat :) I did not know zip And I bugged with the '_' which do the job... I was expecting it would go wrong like: [('a', 'b'), ('c', 'd'), (,'_')] But it good with the "The iterator stops when the shortest input iterable is exhausted."

Hello! Zip is a must have for any Python programmer. Also note on zip_longest in itertools. And whole itertools is nice too.

I always go crazy when seeing the use of lambda function! Great work!

I would really say it's a clear solution. It is not really creative. Nice.

And I really did with 'zip_longest' from itertools. You can check my solution on page 20, and the name is 'Zip It'. It is in the clear solutions page.

List, list and list again
