intersection_by

Returns a list of elements that exist in both lists, after applying the provided function to each list element of both.

• Create a set, using map() to apply fn to each element in b.

• Use a list comprehension in combination with fn on a to only keep values contained in both lists.

def intersection_by(a, b, fn):
  _b = set(map(fn, b))
  return [item for item in a if fn(item) in _b]
