I'm trying to write some code to diff two fonts. What I have is every character (glyph) of the two fonts in a list. I know that the list is sorted by the codepoints of the characters. What I'd like to ask is whether there is a more elegant solution to the loop below or whether there are any rough corners in my code (see below). Note that I'm targeting Python 2, not 3 yet.
Use sets: glyph_1 = set(font1.glyphs) glyph_2 = set(font2.glyphs) only_in_1 = glyph_1 - glyph_2 only_in_2 = glyph_2 - glyph_1 in_both = glyph_1 & glyph_2 that is assuming font1.glyphs's value are hashable. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
