+\section{Looping Techniques \label{loopidioms}}
+
+When looping through dictionaries, the key and corresponding value can
+be retrieved at the same time using the \method{items()} method.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+>>> knights = {'gallahad': 'the pure', 'robin': 'the brave'}
+>>> for k, v in knights.items():
+...     print k, v
+...
+gallahad the pure
+robin the brave
+\end{verbatim}
+ 
+To loop over two or more sequences at the same time, the entries
+can be paired with the \function{zip()} function.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+>>> questions = ['name', 'quest', 'favorite color']
+>>> answers = ['lancelot', 'the holy grail', 'blue']
+>>> for q, a in zip(questions, answers):
+...     print 'What is your %s?  It is %s.' % (q, a)
+...	
+What is your name?  It is lancelot.
+What is your quest?  It is the holy grail.
+What is your favorite color?  It is blue.
