Hello,
Oke, the 4 is a starting point for the index. Next problem. The begin looks like this : index_of(5, (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 5, 5), 4) But in the module I get this result : val = 5 seq = (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 5, 5 So the 4 is not avaible anymore. Now I can change the header to index(val, seq, start=0) to index (val, seq, start) But I think that's not what the exercise wants. Is there another way I can use the 4 ?
