对于一个可比的

# Throws ValueError if nothing is found
some_list = ['foo', 'bar', 'baz'].index('baz')
# some_list == 2

自定义谓词

some_list = [item1, item2, item3]

# Throws StopIteration if nothing is found
# *unless* you provide a second parameter to `next`
index_of_value_you_like = next(
    i for i, item in enumerate(some_list)
    if item.matches_your_criteria())

按谓词查找所有项的索引

index_of_staff_members = [
    i for i, user in enumerate(users)
    if user.is_staff()]

所有具有zip函数的索引：

get_indexes = lambda x, xs: [i for (y, i) in zip(xs, range(len(xs))) if x == y]

print get_indexes(2, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 3, 2, 3, 2])
print get_indexes('f', 'xsfhhttytffsafweef')

简单地说，你可以

a = [['hand', 'head'], ['phone', 'wallet'], ['lost', 'stock']]
b = ['phone', 'lost']

res = [[x[0] for x in a].index(y) for y in b]

我发现这两种解决方案更好，我自己尝试过

>>> expences = [2200, 2350, 2600, 2130, 2190]
>>> 2000 in expences
False
>>> expences.index(2200)
0
>>> expences.index(2350)
1
>>> index = expences.index(2350)
>>> expences[index]
2350

>>> try:
...     print(expences.index(2100))
... except ValueError as e:
...     print(e)
... 
2100 is not in list
>>> 

它只使用python函数array.index（）和简单的Try/Except，如果在列表中找到记录，则返回该记录的位置，如果没有在列表中发现，则返回-1（就像在JavaScript中使用函数indexOf（））。

fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']

try:
  pos = fruits.index("mango")
except:
  pos = -1

在这种情况下，“mango”不在列表水果中，因此pos变量为-1，如果我搜索了“cherry”，pos变量将为2。

name ="bar"
list = [["foo", 1], ["bar", 2], ["baz", 3]]
new_list=[]
for item in list:
    new_list.append(item[0])
print(new_list)
try:
    location= new_list.index(name)
except:
    location=-1
print (location)

这说明了如果字符串不在列表中，如果它不在列表，则位置=-1
