Q:

Why am I getting IndexError: list index out of range in this code? 

Im trying to make a two way bubble sort.   on odd iterations, it bubbles and sorts to the right, on even iterations, it bubbles and sorts to the left. 
def main():

    myList = [10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1]
    lengthOfList = len(myList)
    firstThresh = 0
    lastThresh = lengthOfList
    oddPass = True
    while firstThresh <= lastThresh:
        if oddPass == True:
            for index in myList[firstThresh:lastThresh]:                
                if myList[index] > myList[index+1]:      <==================
                    temp = myList[index]
                    myList[index] = myList[index+1]
                    myList[index+1] = temp
                    print(myList)
                    oddPass = False
            lastThresh -= 1
        else:
            for index in reversed(myList[firstThresh:lastThresh]):
                if myList[index] < myList[index-1]:
                    temp = myList[index]
                    myList[index] = myList[index-1]
                    myList[index+1] = temp
                    print(myList)
                   oddPass = False
            firstThresh += 1
main()

The error:
line 22, in bubbleSort2Way
    if myList[index] > myList[index+1]:
IndexError: list index out of range
I put the arrow where the problem is. 
I am a beginner at programming so if its obvious im sorry! 
Any help would be great! 

A:

The line
for index in myList[firstThresh:lastThresh]:

is using the values from myList, not the index.  So the code is trying to access the 11th element (index "10") on a list with only 10 elements and getting an out of range error. 
To use the index in your loop, change this line to
for index, value in enumerate(myList[firstThresh:lastThresh]):
