Here is what the above code is Doing:
1. It’s creating a list of indices where the first element of the sublist is found in the main list.
2. It’s iterating through that list and checking if the sublist is actually a sublist of the main list.
3. It’s appending the indices of the sublist to a results list.
4. It’s returning the results list.
