Answer 1

def find_smallest_str( s1, s2):
	for i in range(1,len(s1)+1):
		for j in range(len(s1)-i+1):
			all_in = True
			for char in s2:
				if char not in s1[j:j+i]:
					all_in = False
					break
			if all_in:
				print(s1[j:j+i])
				return
	print('no matches found')






s1, s2 = input().split()
find_smallest_str( s1, s2)
