difference between find and index

Also find is only available for strings where as index is available for lists, tuples and strings

>>> somelist
['Ok', "let's", 'try', 'this', 'out']
>>> type(somelist)
<class 'list'>

>>> somelist.index("try")
2

>>> somelist.find("try")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'find'

>>> sometuple
('Ok', "let's", 'try', 'this', 'out')
>>> type(sometuple)
<class 'tuple'>

>>> sometuple.index("try")
2

>>> sometuple.find("try")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'find'

>>> somelist2
"Ok let's try this"
>>> type(somelist2)
<class 'str'>

>>> somelist2.index("try")
9
>>> somelist2.find("try")
9

>>> somelist2.find("t")
5
>>> somelist2.index("t")
5

str.find returns -1 when it does not find the substring.

>>> line = 'hi, this is ABC oh my god!!'
>>> line.find('?')
-1

While str.index raises ValueError:

>>> line.index('?')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: substring not found

Both the functions behave the same way if a sub-string is found.
