Calculate cosine similarity between given two 1d list.
Two list must have the same length.
Example:
cosine_similarity([1, 1, 1], [1, 2, -1])  # output : 0.47140452079103173

import math


def _l2_distance(vec):
    """
    Calculate l2 distance from two given vectors.
    """
    norm = 0.
    for element in vec:
        norm += element * element
    norm = math.sqrt(norm)
    return norm


def cosine_similarity(vec1, vec2):
    """
    Calculate cosine similarity between given two vectors
    :type vec1: list
    :type vec2: list
    """
    if len(vec1) != len(vec2):
        raise ValueError("The two vectors must be the same length. Got shape " + str(len(vec1))
                        + " and " + str(len(vec2)))

    norm_a = _l2_distance(vec1)
    norm_b = _l2_distance(vec2)

    similarity = 0.

    # Calculate the dot product of two vectors

    similarity /= (norm_a * norm_b).
