Return True if all characters in a string are in another string

Question

Alright so for this problem I am meant to be writing a function that returns True if a given string contains only characters from another given string. So if I input \"bird\

Answer 1

sets are fine, but aren't required (and may be less efficient depending on your string lengths). You could also do simply:

s1 = "bird"
s2 = "irbd"

print all(l in s1 for l in s2)  # True

Note that this will stop immediately as soon as a letter in s2 isn't found in s1 and return False.
