这是为那些可能返回某个字符串或输出的人准备的， 下面是代码，希望能有所帮助:

lis =[]
#convert to list
a = list(data)
b = list(data)
def make_list():
    c = "greater than"
    d = "less_than"
    e = "equal"
    for first, first_te in zip(a, b):
        if first < first_te:
            lis.append(d)
        elif first > first_te:
            lis.append(c)
        else:
            lis.append(e)
    return lis

make_list()

我使用了下面的方法，它对我很有效:

group1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
group2 = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]

for k in group1:
    for v in group2:
        if k == v:
            print(k)

在你的例子中，这会输出5。可能不是很好的性能。

>>> s = ['a','b','c']   
>>> f = ['a','b','d','c']  
>>> ss= set(s)  
>>> fs =set(f)  
>>> print ss.intersection(fs)   
   **set(['a', 'c', 'b'])**  
>>> print ss.union(fs)        
   **set(['a', 'c', 'b', 'd'])**  
>>> print ss.union(fs)  - ss.intersection(fs)   
   **set(['d'])**

a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
b = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]

lista =set(a)
listb =set(b)   
print listb.intersection(lista)   
returnMatches = set(['5']) #output 

print " ".join(str(return) for return in returnMatches ) # remove the set()   

 5        #final output 

you can | for set union and & for set intersection.
for example:

    set1={1,2,3}
    set2={3,4,5}
    print(set1&set2)
    output=3

    set1={1,2,3}
    set2={3,4,5}
    print(set1|set2)
    output=1,2,3,4,5

curly braces in the answer.

快捷方式:

list(set(a).intersection(set(b)))
