Great point! I was assuming the temp variable space was static but the
pointer to the start of the list was moving-> shame on me (what
language is this now ;)!
Couldn't resist the temptation to just collect all of the locations as
I traversed
m = [2,9,1,5,6,3,1,1,9,2]
f = 1 #What we're looking for
location = 0 #Start at beginning of list
fIndexs = []
while 1:
try:
location = m.index(f,location) + 1
fIndexs.append(location-1)
except ValueError:
break
print("Last location = %d" % fIndexs[-1])
print("All Items = %s" % fIndexs)
