<DIV>I am teaching my students Python the second semester using <A href="http://www.learnstreet.com/">www.LearnStreet.com</A>. I am in need of some help. I am having a problem with the Lists-Set 1 exercise 18. The problem is below. I have put in several codes and the output is 5, which is the right answer. But it is asking for List's index logic. I have tried support with LearnStreet but they have yet to respond. Thank you for your time.</DIV>
