Powershell Multiple Arrays (noob)

So say I have 2 arrays. 

$Letters = ("A","B","C")
$Numbers = ("1","2","3")

How would you construct a foreach loop such that this worked:

foreach ($letter in $letters) {set-something $number} where I could do a pair of values such that

A was set to 1, B was set to 2, C was set to 3, and so on. What is this even called? I thought it was called nested loops, but searching all over and it seems like that is NOT what this is called. Many thanks!

If it is a Zip op then this will do the trick:

C:\PS> $Letters | Foreach {$i=0} {@($_,$Numbers[$i++]}
A
1
B
2
C
3

But I think you might want this:

C:\PS> $Letters | Foreach {$i=0;$ht=@{}} {$ht."$_"=$Numbers[$i++]}
C:\PS> $ht.A
1
C:\PS> $ht.B
2
C:\PS> $ht.C
3
