If it isn't in the library reference manual, NO...
But it also isn't that difficult to write...
>>> def whatAt(function, data):
... what = function(data)
... at = data.index(what)
... return (at, what)
...
>>> l = [ 1.618033, 3.1415923536, 2.718282 ]
>>> whatAt(min, l)
(0, 1.618033)
>>> whatAt(max, l)
(1, 3.1415923536)
>>>
(properly, I should either reverse the order of the return value, or change
the name to atWhat() )
