my_list=[1,2,3,4,5]
i = 10
while i < 10:
print i ,my_list
i = i +1
My desired output:
1,1
2,2
3,3
4,4
5,5
6,1
7,2
8,3
9,4
10,5
How can I achieve this?

for index, item in enumerate(my_list*2, start = 1):
print index,item

Your task is what itertools.cycle is built for (from Python's standard library):
In [5]: from itertools import cycle
In [6]: for i, j in zip(xrange(1, 11), cycle(my_list)):
...: print i, j
...:
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 1
7 2
8 3
9 4
10 5
In [7]: for i, j in zip(xrange(12), cycle(my_list)):
...: print i, j
...:
0 1
1 2
2 3
3 4
4 5
5 1
6 2
7 3
8 4
9 5
10 1
11 2

for x in range(10):
print(x+1,list[x%len(list)])
This code is unchecked and you may need to modify it a bit.

You can try this easier way :
my_list = [1,2,3,4,5]
newList = (enumerate(my_list*2))
for num in newList:
print(num)
Output:
(0, 1)
(1, 2)
(2, 3)
(3, 4)
(4, 5)
(5, 1)
(6, 2)
(7, 3)
(8, 4)
(9, 5)
list(enumerate(my_list*2, 1))iat 10 and loop only whileiis less than 10. I am not sure why you thought that would work. Startiwhere you want to start (1 in this case). You have other problems but those will have clear solutions when you get to them.
