I'm trying to to compare a list of lists to a simple list in JES This is a sample of the data that im trying to compare
list1 = [(1, 'abc'), (5, 'no'), (5, 'not'), (10, 'which')]
list2 = ['not', 'which', 'abc']
Basically what i'm doing is comparing a set of words and their frequencies (list1) with a list of distinct words (list2), if list 2 matches list 1 make a new list that contains the same word and the frequency from list1 This is an example of the list 3 output below
list3 = [(5, 'not'), (10, 'which'), (1, 'abc')]
This is using JES which is missing some of the full functionality of python, so id assume i can only answer this with a for loop or such
this is what I've tried so far, also a few other combinations
list3 = []
for x in keywords:
for y in frequencyList:
if x == y[1]:
list3.append(y)
Thank you for any help
In python I would do:
list3 = [x for x in list1 if x[1] in list2]
Not sure about JES though
