Question

Assume, you have been given two lists: List_one and List_two. [Your program should work for any two given lists; change the following lists and check whether your program works correctly for the code you have written]

Write a Python program that prints "True", if the given two lists have at least one common member. Otherwise, print "False".

Hint: use a boolean variable as a flag to indicate if the two lists have at least one common element. Use break to end the loop when seeing a commom element.

===================================================================

Given lists 1:
List_one : [1, 4, 3, 2, 6]
List_two : [5, 6, 9, 8, 7]

Sample Output 1:
True

===================================================================

Given lists 2:
List_one : [1, 4, 3, 2, 5]
List_two : [8, 7, 6, 9]

Sample Output 2:
False

#assign the boolean result (True/False) to variable "common_ele" (flag). 

def task5(list_1, list_2):
  # YOUR CODE HERE
    
           
    return common_ele
