+\begin{funcdesc}{enumerate}{iterable}
+  Return an enumerate object. \var{iterable} must be a sequence, an
+  iterator, or some other object which supports iteration.  The
+  \method{next()} method of the iterator returned by
+  \function{enumerate()} returns a tuple containing a count (from
+  zero) and the corresponding value obtained from iterating over
+  \var{iterable}.  \function{enumerate} is useful for obtaining an

+  seq[2])}, \ldots.
