+ This function returns a list of tuples, where each tuple contains the
+ i-th element from each of the argument sequences.  At least one
+ sequence is required, otherwise a \exception{TypeError} is raised.
+ The returned list is truncated in length to the length of the shortest
+ argument sequence.  When the argument sequences are all of the same
+ length, \function{zip} is similar to \function{map} with an initial
+ None argument.
