Question

Say I have a

list=['apple','orange','durian','blackberry']

How do I find the position of 'durian' using while or for loops I know there's a code called list.index('durian') but I want to know the position of the specific item using for/while loops

Answer 1

You could use enumerate(...):

lst = ['apple', 'orange', 'durian', 'blackberry']

for idx, value in enumerate(lst):

    if value == "durian":

        print(idx)
