This function returns a list of tuples, where each tuple contains the
i-th element from each of the argument sequences. At least one
sequence is required, otherwise a \exception{TypeError} is raised.
The returned list is truncated in length to the length of the shortest
argument sequence. When the argument sequences are all of the same
length, \function{zip} is similar to \function{map} with an initial
None argument.
