[Tutor] how to find index of list with its value

[bodsda at googlemail.com]

>>>mylist = [1,2,3,4,1]
>>>mylist.index(1)
0

But note that this only shows the index for the first occurrence of the item.

Well, we all know to know the value when we have the index of a list. But how can we find it in the reverse way...
say a listl=[1,2,3,4]
l[0]=1.but how can I find its address with its value 1 ??
