Kind of hard to explain, but when I run something like this:

fruits = ['apple', 'orange', 'banana', 'strawberry', 'kiwi']

for fruit in fruits:
    print fruit.capitalize()

It gives me this, as expected:

Apple
Orange
Banana
Strawberry
Kiwi

How would I edit that code so that it would "count" the amount of times it's performing the for, and print this?

1 Apple
2 Orange
3 Banana
4 Strawberry
5 Kiwi
