It seems to be the last basic operator that AN should have.\r\n\r\nHowever, for lists of different length, maybe like below if without the Zip node:\r\n\r\n![fill](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/494788/14242843/beb373b8-fa84-11e5-9e6b-8d7c08ec9f11.png)\r\n\r\nBasically Zip can be very possible to be used together with Sort node, imho.\r\n\r\nAlso, as we mentioned above, it is useful to create tuple things for some cases.
