Sorry I meant list.index and not list.count. Apologies for my mistake. http://bugs.python.org/review/28587/

Thanks ChrisRands :) I'm a bit confused with your comment about list.count. list.count does not take start, stop arguments. Perhaps you are thinking about str.count which has been documented correctly https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/stdtypes.html#str.count http://bugs.python.org/review/28587/

One point, I do not know when the start and stop arguments were added to list.count (or if they always existed). I have only tested them in Python2.7 and Python3.5.
