how do i extract a particular value from a variable's set of values

[Anthony Ezeh]

is it possible to use something like the fetch funcion like in MATLAB to get a variable's value?

Hey Anthony,

Depends on what you are working. 

Numpy offers where function or isclose function. Strings have the method find or index. Dict offer keys and values which give a list back in which you can search with the method index again. 

A = ["adg",1,34,6,89,"srhlo"]

A.index(1)

>>> 1

A.index(2)

>>> Error not in list

A[0].index("d")

>>> 1

Hope this is what you are looking for

Best regards

Lukas
