[Python-ideas] Re: zip() as a class constructor (meta) [was: ... Length-Checking To zip]

Maybe people start writing code like this:

if not zip.checksame(a, b):         raise ValueError()     for stuff in zip(a, b):

At some point you just have to hope that people read documentation.

Maybe there's a better name; that one was originally chosen for a value of the length argument, and got moved to a class method on zip "as is". I guess you could go for something like "zip.while_asserting_same_length".
