Returns every element that exists in any of the two lists once, after applying the provided function to each element of both.
Create a set by applying fn to each element in a, then use list comprehension in combination with fn on b to only keep values not contained in the previously created set, _a.
Finally, create a set from the previous result and a and transform it into a list
def union_by(a, b, fn):
_a = set(map(fn, a))
return list(set(a + [item for item in b if fn(item) not in _a]))
