def cmp(a,b):
  return (a>b)-(a<b)
N1=int(input("Enter the size of First list: "))
N2=int(input("Enter the size of Second list: "))
l1=[]
l2=[]
print('First List Elements: ')
for i in range(N1):
  l1.append(int(input('')))
print('Second List Elements: ')
for i in range(N2):
  l2.append(int(input('')))
print(cmp(l1,l2))
print(cmp(l2,l1))

cmp function: This function returns 1, if first list is “greater” than second list,
-1 if first list is smaller than the second list else it returns 0 if both the lists are equal.
As it returns boolean value True-1 or False-0, hence 1-0=1 and 0-1=-1
