Hi
I have 2 list .I want to compare and get the difference.

Python

a = [['vlan 158', '  name MARKET', '  mode vpc'], []]

Python

b = [['vlan 158', '  name MARKETING', '  mode vpc'], ['vlan 159', '  name SALES', '  mode vpc']]

Expected Output :

Missing in "a"

vlan 159
  name SALES
  mode vpc

please suggest how can it be done?

Note : list "a" has Vlan 158 so as list "b" .So its a MATCH ,though "name" is different.not worried about that...

What I have tried:

Tried Many stuff but not getting the expected result
