Question

I am trying to get output like below using pythone code...any suggestions?

list=["ABCPMCABCCMD","CMDABC"] list2=["ABC","CMD"]

Answer 1

You can use re module:

import re

list1 = ["ABCPMCABCCMD", "CMDABC", "ABCMD"]
list2 = ["ABC", "CMD"]

r = re.compile("|".join(re.escape(w) for w in list2))
out = ["".join(r.findall(word)) for word in list1]
print(out)

Prints:

['ABCABCCMD', 'CMDABC', 'ABC']
