numpy.index() in Python

numpy.core.defchararray.index(arr, substring, start=0, end=None): Finds the lowest index of the sub-string in the specified range But if substring is not found, it raises ValueError.

Parameters:
arr : array-like or string to be searched.
substring : substring to search for.
start, end : [int, optional] Range to search in.

Returns : An integer array with the lowest index of found sub-string, raises ValueError if substring is not found.

Code #1:

# Python Program illustrating
# numpy.char.index() method
import numpy as np

arr = ['this is geeks for geek']

print ("arr : ", arr)

print ("\nindex of 'geeks' : ", np.char.index(arr, 'geeks'))

Output:

arr :  ['this is geeks for geek']

index of 'geeks' : [8]

Code #2:

# Python Program illustrating
# numpy.char.index() method
import numpy as np

arr = ['this is geeks for geek']

print ("\nindex of 'geeks' : ", np.char.index(arr, 'geeks', start = 2))
print ("\nindex of 'geeks' : ", np.char.index(arr, 'geeks', start = 10))
print ("\nindex of 'geek' : ", np.char.index(arr, 'geek', start = 10))

Output:

index of 'geeks' : [8]
ValueError: substring not found
index of 'geek' : [18]
