It's 'Set', not 'set'. Try this:

Hi Brian,
regarding "if item + 1 in list1 and item + 1 in list2:",
my understanding is this will check whether the following item in each list is the same. How does the code permit the situation that the order does not matter?
For example, for lisA and lisB, the comparison is true and the two lis

I have four lists:
lisA=[1,2,3,4,5,6,9]
lisB=[1,6,5]
lisC=[5,6,3]
lisD=[11,14,12,15]how can I write a function to compare lisB, lisC and lisD with lisA, if they share two continuous elements (the order does not matter), then return 1, otherwise return 0. For example, lisA, lisB and lisC have 5,6 or
41 matches
