Hello,
I am looking for a nice way to take only those charachters from a string that are in another string and make a new string:
astr = "Bob Carol Ted Alice" letters = "adB" some_func(astr,letters)
"Bad"
astr = "Bob Carol Ted Alice" letters = "adB" both = [x for x in astr if x in letters] print both
>>> ['B', 'a', 'd'] >>> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
