<div><span class="gmail_quote">assume:</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">you have two list with the same size</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">L1 = [1,2,3]</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">L2 = [11,22,33]</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote"></span> </div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">you can zip the L1 and L2 into L</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">L = zip(L1,L2) # L = [(1,11),(2,22),(3,33)] </span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote"></span> </div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">then you can process:</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">for x in L:</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote"> dosomething(x[0])...</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote"> dosomething(x[1])...</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote"></span> </div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">I'm not so sure about your problem but</span></div>
<div><span class="gmail_quote">If you want to do something parallel processing then you should go to threading or pyro.</span></div>
