蟒蛇3。 如何检查后缀是否在列表中的某些单词中？

Question

I am using python3 and coming across this question. Say I have a list

L = ["money", "fame", "popularity"]

I want to check if there is any word in L that contains "pop" . I know that if L is a string, eg if L = "I want to be popular" , then I can just do "pop" in l , and the boolean value will be returned. But now L is a list, how can I check if any word in this list contains "pop" then? (not using a loop if possible)

Answer 1

Use any() to return a True for any match case:

any('pop' in x for x in L)

Code :

L = ["money", "fame", "popularity"]

print(any('pop' in x for x in L))
# True

Answer 2

You can use filter with lambda function

L = ["populate", "position", "popcorn"]
didContainPop = len(list(filter(lambda x: "pop" in x, L))) != 0
print(didContainPop)
