Answer 1

How about this?

a = "lai d"
b = "di al"
sorteda = []
sortedb = []
for i in a:
    if i != " ":
        sorteda.append(i)
        if c == len(b):
            for x in b:
                c -= 1
                if x != " ":
                    sortedb.append(x)
sorteda.sort(key = str.lower)
sortedb.sort(key = str.lower)

print sortedb
print sorteda

print sortedb == sorteda
