How can I check if any of the strings in an array exists in another string?
For example:
a = ['a', 'b', 'c']
s = "a123"
if a in s:
print("some of the strings found in s")
else:
print("no strings found in s")
How can I replace the if a in s: line to get the appropriate result?

You can use any:
a_string = "A string is more than its parts!" matches = ["more", "wholesome", "milk"] if any([x in a_string for x in matches]):
Similarly to check if all the strings from the list are found, use all instead of any.
