Answer 1

def find_in_list_of_list(mylist, char):
    for sub_list in mylist:
        if char in sub_list:
            return (mylist.index(sub_list), sub_list.index(char))
    raise ValueError("'{char}' is not in list".format(char = char))

example_list = [['a', 'b', 'c'], ['d', 'e', 'f'], ['g', 'h']]

find_in_list_of_list(example_list, 'b')
(0, 1)
