Hi,
I'm playing around with list comprehension, and I'm trying to find the
most aesthetic way to do the following:
I have two lists:
noShowList = ['one', 'two', 'three']
myList = ['item one', 'item four', 'three item']
I want to show all the items from 'myList' that do not contain any of
the strings in 'noShowList'.
i.e. 'item four'
I can do it like this:
def inItem(noShowList, listitem):
return [x for x in noShowList if x in listitem]
print [x for x in myList if not inItem(noShowList, x)]
and I can do it (horribly) with:
print [x for x in myList if not (lambda y, z:[i for i in y if i in z])
(noShowList, x)]
I can also print out the items that DO contain the 'noShowList'
strings with:
print [x for x in myList for y in noShowList if y in x]
but I can't get the 'not' bit to work in the above line.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
