Assuming you're using Python 2.4+:
>>> d1 = {'a':1, 'b':2, 'c':3, 'd':5}
>>> d2 = {'a':1, 'c':7, 'e':6}
>>> dict((k, v) for k, v in d1.iteritems() if k in d2)
{'a': 1, 'c': 3}
Or if you're comparing key/value pairs instead of just keys:
>>> dict((k, v) for k, v in d1.iteritems() if k in d2 and d2[k]==v)
{'a': 1}
Finally, if you're on Python 2.3, use these versions (less efficient
but still functional):
>>> dict([(k, v) for k, v in d1.iteritems() if k in d2])
{'a': 1, 'c': 3}
>>> dict([(k, v) for k, v in d1.iteritems() if k in d2 and d2[k]==v])
{'a': 1}
