If you write "for x in range(len(l1))" you are a little closer already. Most of the time, filtering jobs like this can be accomplished by one- liners using the right list combination and iteration tools: [c for c in enumerate(zip(l1,l2)) if c[1][0] ==c[1][1]] -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
