Is it possible to write a list comprehension for this so as to produce a

What happens if your iterables aren't the same length?
But, I'd rather just use zip. :-)
And with zip() you won't get an error, but it won't be correct,
either.
Wouldn't it be nice to have leftZip(), rightZip(), and fullZip() for
when the lists have different lengths? The final tuples for a leftZip
could be in the form (value, ) and for right zip (, value) (though I
think this last tuple is not allowed in python's syntax, we might define
a "Null" or "Empty" name to act as a place holder in the resulting tuples).
