你也可以计算任何字符串字面值:

import ast
ast.literal_eval('True')  # True
type(ast.literal_eval('True'))  # <class 'bool'>


ls = '[1, 2, 3]'
ast.literal_eval(ls)  # [1, 2, 3]
type(ast.literal_eval(ls))  # <class 'list'>

你也可以计算任何字符串字面值:

import ast
ast.literal_eval('True')  # True
type(ast.literal_eval('True'))  # <class 'bool'>


ls = '[1, 2, 3]'
ast.literal_eval(ls)  # [1, 2, 3]
type(ast.literal_eval(ls))  # <class 'list'>

这是我的版本。它同时检查正值和负值列表，对于未知值引发异常。它不接收字符串，但任何类型都可以。

def to_bool(value):
    """
       Converts 'something' to boolean. Raises exception for invalid formats
           Possible True  values: 1, True, "1", "TRue", "yes", "y", "t"
           Possible False values: 0, False, None, [], {}, "", "0", "faLse", "no", "n", "f", 0.0, ...
    """
    if str(value).lower() in ("yes", "y", "true",  "t", "1"): return True
    if str(value).lower() in ("no",  "n", "false", "f", "0", "0.0", "", "none", "[]", "{}"): return False
    raise Exception('Invalid value for boolean conversion: ' + str(value))

示例:

>>> to_bool(True)
True
>>> to_bool("tRUe")
True
>>> to_bool("1")
True
>>> to_bool(1)
True
>>> to_bool(2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 9, in to_bool
Exception: Invalid value for boolean conversion: 2
>>> to_bool([])
False
>>> to_bool({})
False
>>> to_bool(None)
False
>>> to_bool("Wasssaaaaa")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 9, in to_bool
Exception: Invalid value for boolean conversion: Wasssaaaaa
>>>

你可以这样做

my_string = "false"
val = (my_string == "true")

parens中的位将计算为False。这是另一种不需要进行实际函数调用的方法。

使用这个解决方案:

def to_bool(value) -> bool:
    if value == 'true':
        return True
    elif value == 'True':
        return True
    elif value == 'false':
        return False
    elif value == 'False':
        return False
    elif value == 0:
        return False
    elif value == 1:
        return True
    else:
        raise ValueError("Value was not recognized as a valid Boolean.")

在python 3.10版本中，你可以这样做;

def stringToBool(string: str) -> bool:
    match(string.lower()):
        case 'true':
            return True
        case 'false':
            return False

match-statement等价于c++中的switch。
