Yah- many other languages supply a way to fetch the "key" as well as 
the value in these sort of structures, so it was a reasonable 
expectation! I guess since "for each" is sequential, it's easy enough 
to do without...

That'll work, but keep in mind it mostly defeats the speed of "for 
each". Incrementing a counter would preserve the speed advantage over 
other structures.

Good luck!
