+  Note, the left-to-right evaluation order of the iterables is guaranteed.
+  This makes possible an idiom for clustering a data series into n-length
+  groups using \samp{izip(*[iter(s)]*n)}.  For data that doesn't fit
+  n-length groups exactly, the last tuple can be pre-padded with fill
+  values using \samp{izip(*[chain(s, [None]*(n-1))]*n)}.
+         
+  Note, when \function{izip()} is used with unequal length inputs, subsequent
+  iteration over the longer iterables cannot reliably be continued after
+  \function{izip()} terminates.  Potentially, up to one entry will be missing
+  from each of the left-over iterables. This occurs because a value is fetched
+  from each iterator in-turn, but the process ends when one of the iterators
+  terminates.  This leaves the last fetched values in limbo (they cannot be
+  returned in a final, incomplete tuple and they are cannot be pushed back
+  into the iterator for retrieval with \code{it.next()}).  In general,
+  \function{izip()} should only be used with unequal length inputs when you
+  don't care about trailing, unmatched values from the longer iterables.
