I am trying to see if any value of one list matches any value of the other list, But I can't make it this way. Please help!..I don't understand why

Question

I am trynna make a code that checks whether a string value from a list is similar to other string value in another list..But this doesn't work, I am sure that the problem lies in the loop statement..But I can't figure it out..

import random as r

explc_words = ['f***','sh*t','dumb']

breakdown_list = ['Hello','myself','Rahul','sh*t','I','messed','up']

original = 'Hello, myself Rahul, Sh*t I messed up'

mindlang_words =['Please check again','Was it intentional?','please mind your language']

for j in explc_words:

    if j in breakdown_listi:

        print(r.choice(mindlang_words))
        break
    else:
        print("Please recheck everything you typed:", original)
        break

Answer 1

Are you aware you have a typo? the variable "breakdown_listi" is not defined. You probably meant "breakdown_list".

After correcting this, I ran your code and got this:

Please recheck everything you typed: Hello, myself Rahul, Sh*t I messed up

I think the code you probably want is something like this:

if any(xw in breakdown_list for xw in explc_words):
    print(r.choice(midlang_words))
else:
    print("Please recheck everything you typed", original)

The issue is that for either condition you break the loop, so only the first word is getting tested.
