Revision 2. </p> <p>my_list.index(element) returns the index of the element using common comparision (as in == or __eq__() or __cmp__()). If you need to find an element on the list using identity comparing (is) then this function can do it for you</p>

Revision 2. </p> <p>Oftentimes you want to find the index of a list-like object. Numpy arrays, for example, do not have a index member function. These get the job done quickly.</p> <p>Note: these do not raise exceptions, instead they return -1 on error. You should change that if you want different behavior.</p>

Revision 6. </p> <p>A generator function which enables traversal and modification of deeply nested lists. Together with the supplied helper functions it could be useful when working with data stored in deeply nested lists, particularly when the level of nesting precludes a recursive approach.</p>
