Always a code smell when range() and len() are combined.
Any other way of traversing two lists in parallel?
Yes. Builtin function called 'zip'.

Toy example:
import string
alpha = string.ascii_lowercase
nums = range(len(alpha))
for N, A in zip(nums, alpha):
print(N, A)
Good luck,

Which would usually be written for N, A in enumerate(alpha):
