How to find range overlap in python?
What is the best way in Python to determine what values in two ranges overlap? For example: x = range(1,10) y = range(8,20) (The answer I am looking for would be the integers 8 and 9.) Given a range, x, what is the best way to iterate through another range, y and output all values that are shared by both ranges? Thanks in advance for the help. EDIT: As a follow-up, I realized that I also need to know if x does or does not overlap y. I am looking for a way to iterate through a list of ranges and and do a number of additional things with range that overlap. Is there a simple True/False statement
