It's actually enough to provide a single list to Zip(). This makes it a shorter alternative to Sequence() when all you want is to traverse a list. For example, <code>Zip(a^2, a, listOfNumbers)</code> is much shorter than <code>Sequence(Element(listOfNumbers, a)^2, a, 1, Length(listOfNumbers))</code> (albeit in this case it's easier to just do <code>listOfNumbers^2</code>.)

It's actually enough to provide a single list to Zip(). This makes it a shorter alternative to Sequence() when all you want is to traverse a list. For example, Zip(a^2, a, listOfNumbers) is much shorter than Sequence(Element(listOfNumbers, a)^2, a, 1, Length(listOfNumbers)) (albeit in this case it's easier to just do listOfNumbers^2.)

Note Hint: Zip() is similar to a construct known as "map" in other programming languages.
