Convert many line of procedure code in one line using python

Question

This is a procedure, I wanna convert it in one line:

def fix_machine(debris, product):
    i=0
    while(i<len(product)):
        if(debris.find(product[i]) == -1):
            return "Give me something that's not useless next time."
            break
        i = i + 1
    return product

I would like to transform this code in one line... @KhairulBasarRofi — Deus Ralph, Feb 18 '17 at 15:16
Please provide sample values for `debris` and `product`. `debris` is a string, because it has a `find`, yes? And `product` is a list of strings? — Martin Burch, Feb 18 '17 at 15:22

debris = 'widget_z'
product = ['widget_a', 'widget_b', 'widget_c', 'widget_d']

if debris not in product: print("Give me something that's not useless next time.")

Better explain what debris and product is next time, but I think you want this:

def fix_machine(debris, product):    
    if set(product) <= set(debris):
        return product
    else:
        return "Give me something that's not useless next time."

I assume debris and product are both strings for now.
