What are some alternatives to writing
len(mylist3 & mylist4)within this code?
mylist1 = [1,2,3]
mylist2 = [4,5,6]
mylist3 = set(mylist1)
mylist4 = set(mylist2)
lenresult = len(mylist3 & mylist4)A module i'm importing is unable to use the count() that gets called with the ' & ' operator.
Jump to Postmylist1 = [1,2,3,4] mylist2 = [3,4,5,6] myset1 = set(mylist1) myset2 = set(mylist2) # intersection of sets myset1 and myset2 # gives a new set containing the common elements myset3 = myset1.intersection(myset2) print(myset3) # set([3, 4]) print(len(myset3)) # 2
mylist1 = [1,2,3,4]
mylist2 = [3,4,5,6]
myset1 = set(mylist1)
myset2 = set(mylist2)
# intersection of sets myset1 and myset2
# gives a new set containing the common elements
myset3 = myset1.intersection(myset2)
print(myset3) # set([3, 4])
print(len(myset3)) # 2perfect, thx
