Raymond Hettinger <python@rcn.com>: > An arbitrary enumerate() function is clearly going to create > numbers But that's *not* clear to anyone who knows what the word "enumerate" really means, and isn't just guessing based on the fact that it has "num" in it. There doesn't seem to be any single English word that captures all of what we mean without ambiguity. Maybe we should be making up a new word altogether, such as "numberize" or something.
