I have two lists. The first list has a specific length and the second list has unstable length. I want to assign the items from two lists.
I use colour_index = sel_pos%(len(colours)). The sel_pos is the item's position from the unstable list.
How to find the position every time?

Can you provide a code sample, so we can more easily understand your issue? – Poorkenny Aug 26 '16 at 09:28

Use l.index(n) to find index of n in list l.
>>> x = [1,3,7]
>>> x.index(3)

You can use Index function which is get the element and return the index of it in the list:
indexNumber = MyList.Index(Element)
