What is enumerate() in Python?

Enumerate() in Python is a built-in function used for assigning an index to each item of the iterable object. It adds a loop on the iterable objects while keeping track of the current item and returns the object in an enumerable form. This object can be used in a for loop to convert it into a list by using list() method.

Example of enumerate() is as follows:

Suppose we want to do numbering for our month ( Jan, Feb, Marc, ….June), so we declare the variable i that enumerate the numbers while m will print the number of month in list.

#use a for loop over a collection
Months = ["Jan","Feb","Mar","April","May","June"]
for i, m in enumerate (Months):
        print(i,m)
        
# use the break and continue statements
        
        #for x in range (10,20):
        #if (x == 15): break
        #if (x % 5 == 0) : continue
        #print x
