If you are running the code in python 3, as suggested by the use of the set
literals, the mentioned itertools.product() is probably the straightforward
way.
Another possibility could be a nested generator expression (here using lists
- preserving the order):
>>> a = ["a", "b", "c"]
>>> b = [4, 9, 13]
>>> for item in ((ax, bx) for ax in a for bx in b): print item
...
('a', 4)
('a', 9)
('a', 13)
('b', 4)
('b', 9)
('b', 13)
('c', 4)
('c', 9)
('c', 13)
>>>
