find common elements in two lists python

list1 = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
list2 = [3, 5, 7, 9]
list(set(list1).intersection(list2))

find common in lists

>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
>>> b = [2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> c = [3, 4, 5, 6]
>>> set(a) & set(b) & set(c)
{3, 4}

find common words in two lists python

list1 = ['little','blue','widget']
list2 = ['there','is','a','little','blue','cup','on','the','table']

list3 = set(list1)&set(list2)

list4 = sorted(list3, key = lambda k : list1.index(k))

python common elements in two arrays

# using numpy
import numpy as np
a = np.array([1,2,3,2,3,4,3,4,5,6])
b = np.array([7,2,10,2,7,4,9,4,9,8])
# using intersect1d
print(np.intersect1d(a,b))
# output
# [2 4]
