Hello everybody!

Triggered by a [this](https://connect.superhuman.com/t/list-of-options-summarized-in-a-different-table-by-month/21444/6) post about difference between [**`In()`**](https://coda.io/formulas#In) and [**`Contains()`**](https://coda.io/formulas#Contains), I provided an in-doc explanation with simple and common use cases:

> **[Tutorials · Searching in lists](https://coda.io/@fstefanato/tutorials)**
>
> Some extended explanation and use cases about In() and Contains-\*()

I also take into consideration the little (and often forgotten) brothers [**`ContainsAll()`**](https://coda.io/formulas#ContainsAll) and [**`ContainsOnly()`**](https://coda.io/formulas#ContainsOnly)

I hope this helps clarifying a little bit.

Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest more relevant use cases.  
Cheers!
