在 Python 中，如果您有两个共享多个元素的列表，您如何创建具有匹配项的新列表？

Question

If you have two lists that share a number of elements, how do you find the matches, and create a new list of these elements?

Ex.)

 first = ['cat','dog','parrot','fish']
 second = ['fish', 'hamster', 'mouse', 'dog']

how would make a function/for-loop that searches for the matches and puts them into a list?

 matches = ['dog', 'fish']

Answer 1

You can do set.intersection if order does not matter:

list(set(first).intersection(second))

Or if order matters, you can do a list comprehension:

[x for x in first if x in second]

Answer 2

Try this:

 match = [] for i in first: for j in second: if i == j: match.append(i) print('Match: {}'.format(match))
