If numbers are repeated then how can we get index of other than 1st one

Question

List index

Answer 1

Please mention the language name in tags where you have added lists

Answer 2

for i,j in enumerate(list)
suppose there are similar values then you can check using i which is index for that value like
If i==3:
print(j)

But if values are same
and you want to get index
You can try
If j==5
print(i)

I am sure it will print the first index for value 5

also you can do for index other than 1
If j==5 and i==3
then it will get the value 5 from 3rd index

Answer 3

Something like this if this is what you wanted to know
a=[5,5,5,5,5]
for i,j in enumerate(a):
if i==3 and j==5:
print(j)

Answer 4

Are you talking about the index method?

somelist.index(whatever)

This returns the first find.

If you want to find another occurrence, you can define the start point of where you look.

Let's say, you have found your first occurrence at index 5, then you can write:

somelist.index(whatever, 6)

Then, the method will return the first find *after* the first find.

Using this, you can walk through the whole list in a while loop or something, and get all your finds.

Answer 5

[i for i in range(len(mylist) ) if mylist[i] == number]

but enumerate is more pythonic.

Answer 6
