Intersection of two lists including duplicates?

by

You can use collections.Counter for this, which will provide the lowest count found in either list for each element when you take the intersection.

from collections import Counter

c = list((Counter(a) & Counter(b)).elements())

Outputs:

[1, 1, 2, 3, 4]
