with open('input.txt', 'r') as inputfile:
	assignments = [i.rsplit(',') for i in inputfile.read().split('\n')]
	for x in assignments:
		for i,j in enumerate(x):
			k = j.split('-')
			x[i] = set(range(int(k[0]), int(k[1])+1))

count_1 = 0
count_2 = 0
for i in assignments:
	if i[0].issubset(i[1]) or i[1].issubset(i[0]):
		count_1 += 1
	if not i[0].isdisjoint(i[1]):
		count_2 += 1

print(count_1)    #Part 1
print(count_2)    #Part 2

Nice and clean solution. How do you assign x to assignments variable for the second loop?

Not sure what you mean. The second loop modifies the assignment list to convert each string element into a list of a pair of sets containing the elf pair's respective assignments
