Also called mesh()
The downside of it's use of prototypes is that it precludes the use of inline anonymous array constructors:
use List::MoreUtils qw[zip];
my %hash = zip [1..3],['a'..'c'];
Type of arg 1 to main::zip must be array (not single ref constructor)
+at
Type of arg 2 to main::zip must be array (not single ref constructor)
+at
In this case, trading the avoidance of two backslashes for the need to declare and initilise temporary arrays, or substitute the unweildy
use List::MoreUtils qw[zip];
my %hash = zip @{[1..3]},@{['a'..'c']};
is not such a good trade. Of course it does handle more than two arrays, but that is a fairly rare usage.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
