<s>[INST] Check if multiple strings exist in another string How can I check if any of the strings in an array exists in another string?
Like:
a = ['a', 'b', 'c']
str = "a123"
if a in str:
  print "some of the strings found in str"
else:
  print "no strings found in str"

That code doesn't work, it's just to show what I want to achieve.
 [/INST] You can use any:
if any(x in str for x in a):

Similarly to check if all the strings from the list are found, use all instead of any.
