Hi Tobiah,
I blogged extensively on this zip(*x) trick here:

Instead of passing a single argument x to zip() you can think of it
unpacking the list x and passing len(x) arguments to zip.
So if
master,slave1,slave2=zip(*x)
What does the asterisk do here?
Thanks

Hi Peter,
a small example:
master=[1,4,3,2]
slave1=['d','c','b','a']
slave2=[1,2,3,4]
master.sort() # this is ok, but does not return info
> >>> master_index.sort(key=master.__getitem__)
that was it!
Thanks Peter, leodp

Hi all,
I cannot find anything on this:
I have a few lists, and would like to sort one of them (sorting-master
list).
Then I would like to sort all other lists according to how the first
one was sorted (sorting-slave lists).
Is there a standard way to do that?
