  short_description: combine list elements
  positional: _input, _additional_lists
  description: Iterate over several iterables in parallel, producing tuples with an item from each one.
  notes:
    - This is mostly a passhtrough to Python's C(zip) function.
  options:
    _input:
      description: Original list.
      type: list
      elements: any
      required: yes
    _additional_lists:
      description: Additional list(s).
      type: list

      required: yes
    strict:
      description: If C(True) return an error on mismatching list length, otherwise shortest list determines output.

EXAMPLES: |

    # two => [[1, "a"], [2, "b"], [3, "c"], [4, "d"], [5, "e"], [6, "f"]]
    two: "{{ [1,2,3,4,5,6] | zip(['a','b','c','d','e','f']) }}"

    # three => [ [ 1, "a", "d" ], [ 2, "b", "e" ], [ 3, "c", "f" ] ]
    three: "{{ [1,2,3] | zip(['a','b','c'], ['d','e','f']) }}"

    # shorter => [[1, "a"], [2, "b"], [3, "c"]]
    shorter: "{{ [1,2,3] | zip(['a','b','c','d','e','f']) }}"

    # compose dict from lists of keys and values
    mydcit: "{{ dict(keys_list | zip(values_list)) }}"

RETURN:
  _value:
    description: List of lists made of elements matching the positions of the input lists.
