Hello, 
 
I try to learn python by following the audicity page.
 
Now I have the following problem.
 
I have two strings a and b 
 
Now I have to check if the characters of b are all in a.
But they do have to be in the same order. 
 
So I thought about this solution.
 
length = len(b)
start = 1 
while start < length :
      check = a.find (b[start])
      if check == -1 : 
            return False 
      start = start + 1 
return True 
 
But according to the site this can be solved in a one-liner. 
 
So can someone give me pointers how this can be done and if my solution can 
work. 
 
Roelof
