Use the enumerate   function to generate the index along with the elements of the sequence you are looping over   for index  w in enumerate loopme       print  CURRENT WORD IS   w   AT CHARACTER   index

Do you want to iterate over characters or words   For words  you ll have to split the words first  such as  for index  word in enumerate loopme split            print  CURRENT WORD IS   word   AT INDEX   index   This prints the index of the word   For the absolute character position you d need something like  chars   0 for index  word in enumerate loopme split            print  CURRENT WORD IS   word   AT INDEX   index   AND AT CHARACTER   chars     chars    len word    1
