Code Type : Function

Code Difficulty : Intermediate

                
                    
def zip(*iterables):
    """Zip multiple iterables together into a single iterable.

    Args:
        *iterables: An arbitrary number of iterables.

    Returns:
        An iterator that aggregates elements from each of the iterables.

    Example:
        >>> list(zip([1, 2], ['a', 'b'], [True, False]))
        [(1, 'a', True), (2, 'b', False)]
    """
    # The zip function is used to combine multiple iterables into a single iterable
    # by taking one element from each iterable at a time.
    iterator = iter(iterables)
    for i in iterator:
        yield (x for x in i)
