how to compare a string to a list to see if it appears python code example

Example 1: check if string equals string in list python

if any(x in paid[j] for x in d):
  # do stuff

Example 2: comparing strings in array python

def bubbleSort(myArr):
    for i in range (0, len(myArr) - 1):
        for j in range (0, len(myArr) - 1 - i):
            if myArr[j].casefold() > myArr[j + 1].casefold():
                myArr[j],myArr[j + 1] = myArr[j+1], myArr[j]
    return myArr

print(bubbleSort(myArr))
# remove casefold if not list is uniform
