如果你想要一个布尔值:

>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> b = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
>>> set(b) == set(a)  & set(b) and set(a) == set(a) & set(b)
False
>>> a = [3,1,2]
>>> b = [1,2,3]
>>> set(b) == set(a)  & set(b) and set(a) == set(a) & set(b)
True

另一种更实用的方法是检查列表1 (lst1)和列表2 (lst2)是否相等，其中对象的深度为1，并保持顺序:

all(i == j for i, j in zip(lst1, lst2))   

使用__and__属性方法也可以。

>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> b = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
>>> set(a).__and__(set(b))
set([5])

或者简单地

>>> set([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]).__and__(set([9, 8, 7, 6, 5]))
set([5])
>>>    

我使用了下面的方法，它对我很有效:

group1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
group2 = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]

for k in group1:
    for v in group2:
        if k == v:
            print(k)

在你的例子中，这会输出5。可能不是很好的性能。

快捷方式:

list(set(a).intersection(set(b)))

>>> s = ['a','b','c']   
>>> f = ['a','b','d','c']  
>>> ss= set(s)  
>>> fs =set(f)  
>>> print ss.intersection(fs)   
   **set(['a', 'c', 'b'])**  
>>> print ss.union(fs)        
   **set(['a', 'c', 'b', 'd'])**  
>>> print ss.union(fs)  - ss.intersection(fs)   
   **set(['d'])**
