In this example, we will find the value of an element in a list based on the index and print the result in the console.
Drag a button component to the canvas and open the Action tab. Select the press event of the button and drag the Log.write function to the event flow.
Call the function List.find inside the Log.write function.
Then call the function Conversion.toList inside the data parameter of the List.find function.
Enter the value parameter to return the position of the value in the list or enter the position parameter to return the value that is in that position in the list. In this example, we will enter the position parameter.
The console will print the position of the element specified or the element at the position specified.
In this example, the value that will be printed is 3, as it is the element at position '2' in the list that was passed. (Note: position in a list starts from value '0')
