How would you rewrite the following code, in good python style ? list1 = [ 1,2,3,4,5,6 ] list2 = [ 6,5,4,3,2,1 ] count = 0 for item in list1: print item - list2[count] count = count + 1 In other words, I want to loop through two lists, performing some operation on elements in corresponding positions . . . there must be a more elegant way.
