Reference solution

The shape we check against. Any implementation that passes the assertions is valid — this one favours clarity.

def common_and_unique(a, b):
    sa, sb = set(a), set(b)
    return (sorted(sa & sb), sorted(sa - sb))

Code is blurred until you solve this problem — the reasoning stays readable.
