Checking for sub dictionary in a main dictionary

440 256MB
Hi,

I would like to check for the sub-dictionary availability in main dictionary,without using loops.

Say
l1 ={1:100,2:200,4:500,6:900}
l2 = {2:200,6:900}

O/P:

if the sub-dictionary is subset of main dictionary.It should say TRUE

>>> l1 ={1:100,2:200,4:500,6:900}
>>> l2 = {2:200,6:900}
>>> bool(set(l1.items()).intersection(set(l2.items())) )
True
