Answer 1

Answer

Here is the answer-

# Search function with parameter list name  

# and the value to be searched  

def search(list,n):  

 

   for i in range(len(list)):  

       if list[i] == n:  

           return True

   return False

 

# list which contains both string and numbers.  

list = [1, 2, 'sachin', 4,'Geeks', 6]  

 

# Driver Code  

n = 'Geeks'

 

if search(list, n):  

   print("Found")  

else:  

   print("Not Found")

Answer 2

# I'll be using 3 variables for this program, i.e., "a", "size", "element".

a=eval(input("Enter the numbers for the list separated by comma(,) : ")) # Without the square parenthesis the input number will be converted to tuple. So to make it a list we can use the function list().

a=list(a) # Converting the tuple into list.

element=int(input("Enter element to be searched for : ")) # This variable will help use find what the user needs.

for x in range(0,size):

 if element ==a[x]:

   print(element, "found at index", x)

   break

else:

   print(element, "not found in the given list.")
