Hello,
I have this programm :
def index_of(val, seq, start=0):
"""
>>> index_of(9, [1, 7, 11, 9, 10])
3
>>> index_of(5, (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 5, 5))
3
>>> index_of(5, (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 5, 5), 4)
6
>>> index_of('y', 'happy birthday')
4
>>> index_of('banana', ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date'])
1
>>> index_of(5, [2, 3, 4])
-1
>>> index_of('b', ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date'])
-1
"""
plek = 0
if type(seq) == type([]):
plek = seq.index(val)
elif type(seq) == type(()):
seq = list (seq)
plek = seq.index(val)
else :
plek = seq.find(val)
return plek
But I get this message :
File "C:\Users\wobben\workspace\oefeningen\src\test.py", line 70, in
__main__.index_of
Failed example:
index_of(5, (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 5, 5), 4)
Expected:
6
Got:
3
But in that tuple 5 is on position 3.
Is the exercise here wrong ?
Roelof
