Given a list of sentences ‘sentence’ and a list of words ‘words’, write a Python program to find which sentence in the list of sentences consist of all words contained in ‘words’ and return them within a list.
Examples:
Input : sentence = ['I love tea', 'He hates tea', 'We love tea']
words = ['love', 'tea']
Output : ['I love tea', 'We love tea']
Input : sentence = ['python coder', 'geeksforgeeks', 'coder in geeksforgeeks']
words = ['coder', 'geeksforgeeks']
Output : ['coder in geeksforgeeks']
Approach #1 : Using List comprehension
We first use list comprehension, to return a boolean value for each substring of the list of sentence and store it in ‘res’. Finally, return a list comprising of the desired sentences according to the boolean values in ‘res’.
# Python3 program to Check if given words # appear together in a list of sentence def check(sentence, words): res = [all([k in s for k in words]) for s in sentence] return [sentence[i] for i in range(0, len(res)) if res[i]] # Driver code sentence = ['python coder', 'geeksforgeeks', 'coder in geeksforgeeks'] words = ['coder', 'geeksforgeeks'] print(check(sentence, words)) |
['coder in geeksforgeeks']
Approach #2 : List comprehension (Alternative way)
For each substring in list of sentences, it checks how many words are there in the current substring and stores it in a variable ‘k’. If the length of ‘k’ matches with length of list of words, just append it to ‘res’.
# Python3 program to Check if given words # appear together in a list of sentence def check(sentence, words): res = [] for substring in sentence: k = [ w for w in words if w in substring ] if (len(k) == len(words) ): res.append(substring) return res # Driver code sentence = ['python coder', 'geeksforgeeks', 'coder in geeksforgeeks'] words = ['coder', 'geeksforgeeks'] print(check(sentence, words)) |
['coder in geeksforgeeks']
Approach #3 : Python map()
map() method applies a function on list of sentences and check if all words are contained in the list or not by splitting the list of words. It returns a boolean value for each substring of the list of sentence and store it in ‘res’. Finally, repeat the same steps as in approach #1.
# Python3 program to Check if given words # appear together in a list of sentence def check(sentence, words): res = list(map(lambda x: all(map(lambda y:y in x.split(), words)), sentence)) return [sentence[i] for i in range(0, len(res)) if res[i]] # Driver code sentence = ['python coder', 'geeksforgeeks', 'coder in geeksforgeeks'] words = ['coder', 'geeksforgeeks'] print(check(sentence, words)) |
['coder in geeksforgeeks']
