Given a string and a list of substrings I want to the first position any substring occurs in the string. If no substring occurs, return 0. I want to ignore case.
Is there something more pythonic than:
given = 'Iamfoothegreat'
targets = ['foo', 'bar', 'grea', 'other']
res = len(given)
for t in targets:
i = given.lower().find(t)
if i > -1 and i < res:
res = i
if res == len(given):
result = 0
else:
result = res
That code works, but seems inefficient.
