Return an enumerate object. *sequence* must be a sequence, an
:term:`iterator`, or some other object which supports iteration. The
:meth:`next` method of the iterator returned by :func:`enumerate` returns a
- tuple containing a count (from zero) and the corresponding value obtained
- from iterating over *iterable*. :func:`enumerate` is useful for obtaining an
- indexed series: ``(0, seq[0])``, ``(1, seq[1])``, ``(2, seq[2])``, .... For
