Tuples don't have all the nice methods that lists have so convert it to a list.
tuple=('a','b','c','d') l=list(tuple)
now you can do:
list.index('c')
which returns 2
Remember index returns -1 when nothing is found.
No, that's .find in strings that returns -1. .index in lists raises a ValueError:
>>> [1, 2, 3].index(4) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ValueError: list.index(x): x not in list
