<s>[INST] Python - merge items of two lists into a list of tuples What's the pythonic way of achieving the following?
list_a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
list_b = [5, 6, 7, 8]

#Need to create a of tuples from list_a and list_b

list_c = [(1,5), (2,6), (3,7), (4,8)]

Each member of list_c is a tuple, whose first member is from list_a and the second is from list_b.
 [/INST] >>> list_a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
>>> list_b = [5, 6, 7, 8]
>>> zip(list_a, list_b)
[(1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 7), (4, 8)]
