I have two mesh grid `xg =5×5 LazyGrids.GridUR{Int64, 1, 2}: [1 1 1 1 1; 2 2 2 2 2; 3 3 3 3 3; 4 4 4 4 4; 5 5 5 5 5]`  
and `yg =5×5 LazyGrids.GridUR{Int64, 1, 2}: [1 1 1 1 1; 2 2 2 2 2; 3 3 3 3 3; 4 4 4 4 4; 5 5 5 5 5]`,  
How can I change these two meshs into position coordinates like `(1,1), (1,2)..., (1,5), ..., (5,5)` ?

`collect(zip(xg,yg))`?

(There is probably a better way to approach your problem that doesn’t involve explicitly materializing this array, but without more context it’s hard to give better advice.)
