How can i find the index of an item in a python list?

To find the index of an item in a Python list, you can use the `index()` method of the list. It returns the first occurrence of the specified value. Example:

fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']
index = fruits.index('banana')

Remember, if the item doesn't exist in the list, a `ValueError` will be raised. It might be a good idea to use a conditional check first.
