enumerate()

Theory

191/268

enumerate() is built into Python. You do not import it. Freshers only need one honest call and the printed result — not a long definition.

enumerate() — output — 1 Asha then 2 Ravi. Index + value together.

Wrong type often raises TypeError. Empty values matter for bool/all/any. Don’t mix enumerate up with a similar name (sorted vs sort, int vs float).

Exam tip

Call enumerate() once and say what prints.

# enumerate()
for i, n in enumerate(["Asha", "Ravi"], start=1):
    print(i, n)

enumerate() — output: 1 Asha then 2 Ravi. Index + value together.
