Returns a list of elements that exist in both lists.
|
|
|
|
- Use a list comprehension on `a` to only keep values contained in both lists.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
def similarity(a, b):
|
|
return [item for item in a if item in b]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
similarity([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 4]) # [1, 2]
|
|
```
