It's intended as non-empty strings evaluate to True so you with `'a' and 'b'
and 'c' in dict` you are essentially evaluating `'a' and 'b' and ('c' in dict)`
with brackets precedence i.e. `True and True and True` . On the other hand `'a'
and 'g' and 'c' in dict` it's the same with 'g' evaluated to True. I guess you
want to check all the keys are present where all is more readable. Some more
answers here:

>>> all(char in dict for char in ['a', 'b', 'c'])
True
>>> all(char in dict for char in ['a', 'b', 'g'])
False
