I have a list of labels for a data file, test = ['depth', '4', '6', '10', '15', '20', '30', '40', 'angle']
I would like to get the string of the first value that is greater than a known value and the previous string. If I have 15.8, I would like to get the index of '20' and '15'. I would also like to make sure that my known value falls in the range 4-40. I am having trouble with the mixed types. for i in range(len(test)): if Field < int(test[i]): print i
