How to efficiently compare two unordered lists (not sets) in Python?

August 21, 2022 by Magenaut

a = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3] b = [3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1] a & b should be considered equal, because they have exactly the same elements, only in different order. The thing is, my actual lists will consist of objects (my class instances), not integers. Answers: Thank you for visiting the … Read more
