Of course you can't. Strings don't conta

if you don't want to write Python programs, why are you using Python ?

I know I can do it this way. I wanted to know if there was another way.

You can get the matching elements with a list comprehension with
something like
py> a='xfsdfyysd asd x'
py> tup=('x','yy','asd')
py> [x for x in tup if x in a.split()]
['x', 'asd']
Hope this helps

Hi,
I often use:
a='yy'
tup=('x','yy','asd')
if a in tup:
<...>
but I can't find an equivalent code for:
a='xfsdfyysd asd x'
tup=('x','yy','asd')
if tup in a:
< ...>
I can only do:
if 'x' in a or 'yy' in a or 'asd' in a:
<...>
but then I can't make the if clause dependent on changin
