This code worked on the workspace. Plus, the error message says "expected (10, 'T'), got (10, 'T') instead. I guess it's a bug.
# combo([1, 2, 3], 'abc')
# Output:
# [(1, 'a'), (2, 'b'), (3, 'c')]
# If you use .append(), you'll want to pass it a tuple of new values.
def combo(it1, it2):
result = list()
n = 0
for x in it1, it2:
result.append((it1[n], it2[n]))
n += 1
return result

def combo(it1, it2):
result = list()
for n in range(len(it1)):
result.append((it1[n], it2[n]))
return result

Welcome to Treehouse!
The issue is with your for statement. We only need to iterate over the first item to be able to get the proper results.
Post back if you are still stuck or have further questions.
Happy coding,

I'll check it in more depth in a console anyway, because I don't quite get what is happening behind the scenes...
Thank you!

2,419 PointsYes, true. Plus, I guess your for loop is more "pythonic", as they say. Thanks!
