这可能是晚了，但我只是认为我应该分享的情况下，你需要手动做(显示工作-哈哈)或当你需要所有元素出现尽可能多的次数或当你也需要它是唯一的。

请注意，还为它编写了测试。

    from nose.tools import assert_equal

    '''
    Given two lists, print out the list of overlapping elements
    '''

    def overlap(l_a, l_b):
        '''
        compare the two lists l_a and l_b and return the overlapping
        elements (intersecting) between the two
        '''

        #edge case is when they are the same lists
        if l_a == l_b:
            return [] #no overlapping elements

        output = []

        if len(l_a) == len(l_b):
            for i in range(l_a): #same length so either one applies
                if l_a[i] in l_b:
                    output.append(l_a[i])

            #found all by now
            #return output #if repetition does not matter
            return list(set(output))

        else:
            #find the smallest and largest lists and go with that
            sm = l_a if len(l_a)  len(l_b) else l_b

            for i in range(len(sm)):
                if sm[i] in lg:
                    output.append(sm[i])

            #return output #if repetition does not matter
            return list(set(output))

    ## Test the Above Implementation

    a = [1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89]
    b = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
    exp = [1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13]

    c = [4, 4, 5, 6]
    d = [5, 7, 4, 8 ,6 ] #assuming it is not ordered
    exp2 = [4, 5, 6]

    class TestOverlap(object):

        def test(self, sol):
            t = sol(a, b)
            assert_equal(t, exp)
            print('Comparing the two lists produces')
            print(t)

            t = sol(c, d)
            assert_equal(t, exp2)
            print('Comparing the two lists produces')
            print(t)

            print('All Tests Passed!!')

    t = TestOverlap()
    t.test(overlap)

你也可以使用numpy.intersect1d(ar1, ar2)。 它返回两个数组中唯一且已排序的值。

在这种情况下，你有一个列表的列表地图很方便:

>>> lists = [[1, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4], [2, 3, 5]]
>>> set(lists.pop()).intersection(*map(set, lists))
{2, 3}

适用于类似的迭代对象:

>>> lists = ['ash', 'nazg']
>>> set(lists.pop()).intersection(*map(set, lists))
{'a'}

如果列表是空的，Pop会爆炸，所以你可能想要在一个函数中进行包装:

def intersect_lists(lists):
    try:
        return set(lists.pop()).intersection(*map(set, lists))
    except IndexError: # pop from empty list
        return set()

a = [1,2,3,4,5]
b = [1,3,5,6]
c = list(set(a).intersection(set(b)))

应该像做梦一样工作。并且，如果可以的话，使用集合而不是列表来避免所有这些类型更改!

这样可以得到两个列表的交集，也可以得到公共重复项。

>>> from collections import Counter
>>> a = Counter([1,2,3,4,5])
>>> b = Counter([1,3,5,6])
>>> a &= b
>>> list(a.elements())
[1, 3, 5]

从较大的集合中创建一个集合:

_auxset = set(a)

然后,

c = [x for x in b if x in _auxset]

会做你想做的(保留b的顺序，而不是a的顺序——不一定能同时保留两者)，而且动作要快。(使用a中的if x作为列表理解中的条件也可以工作，并且避免了构建_auxset的需要，但不幸的是，对于相当长的列表，它会慢得多)。

如果你想对结果进行排序，而不是保持列表的顺序，一个更整洁的方法可能是:

c = sorted(set(a).intersection(b))
