Thank you for pointing this out. I agree that it's not a viable

In simulation, one can use range objects to denote a discrete domain,
and domain comparison could be very useful. Not just equality, but also
things like if one domain is contained in another.
Can't sets [help(set)] be used for this?

Most of what I'm using in Python is with Sage[1]. Thus I'm not about to
step to 3.x :(
You should get in touch with the Sage developers. In the Sage FAQ they

I found zip() but it only gives [('a', '1'), ('b', '2')], not exactly what I
am looking for.
Yet, if you feed the zip into a list comprehension you get what you
want:
li3 = [''.join(l) for l in zip(li1,li2)]

Bloody hell! This is the most persistent troll I've seen to date. He

just laughing at him. This is a mailing list, not a novel, so
colloquialisms are welcome. The language on a mailing list should be

Is there a short cut, or must I do this every time (I have lots of them!) ?
I know I can write a function to do this, but is there anything built-in?
I'd say that we have established that there is no shortcut, no built-
in for this.
I'm using 2.7.1, because that's what my Ubuntu 11.04 bundles (python --
version reports 2.7.1+ though, no idea what the + means). On the other
hand, Ubuntu provides 3.2 packages via apt-get, so I'm in the process

There is a nice matrix representation of consecutive Fibonacci
numbers: [[1, 1], [1, 0]] ** n = [[F_n+1, F_n], [F_n, F_n-1]]. Using
the third party mpmath module, which uses arbitrary precision floating
point arithmetic, we can calculate the n'th Fibonacci number for an
arbitrary n as follows:
I think the OP wants to find the intersection of two lists.
list(set(list1) set(list2)) is indeed one way to achieve this. [i
for i in list1 if i in list2] is another one.
