from operator import itemgetter
# if you would like to play with multiple dictionaries then here you go:
# Three dictionaries that are composed of first name and last name.
user = [
    {'fname': 'Mo', 'lname': 'Mahjoub'},
    {'fname': 'Abdo', 'lname': 'Al-hebashi'},
    {'fname': 'Ali', 'lname': 'Muhammad'}
]
#  This loop will sort by the first and the last names.
# notice that in a dictionary order doesn't matter. So it could put the first name first or the last name first. 
for k in sorted (user, key=itemgetter ('fname', 'lname')):
    print (k)

# This one will sort by the first name only.
for x in sorted (user, key=itemgetter ('fname')):
    print (x)

有许多Python模块提供字典实现，这些字典自动按排序顺序维护键。考虑sortedcontainers模块，它是纯python和像c一样快的实现。此外，还会与其他受欢迎的选项进行性能比较。

如果您需要在迭代的同时不断地添加和删除键/值对，那么使用有序字典是一个不合适的解决方案。

>>> from sortedcontainers import SortedDict
>>> d = {2:3, 1:89, 4:5, 3:0}
>>> s = SortedDict(d)
>>> s.items()
[(1, 89), (2, 3), (3, 0), (4, 5)]

SortedDict类型还支持索引位置查找和删除，这在内置dict类型中是不可能的。

>>> s.iloc[-1]
4
>>> del s.iloc[2]
>>> s.keys()
SortedSet([1, 2, 4])

from operator import itemgetter
# if you would like to play with multiple dictionaries then here you go:
# Three dictionaries that are composed of first name and last name.
user = [
    {'fname': 'Mo', 'lname': 'Mahjoub'},
    {'fname': 'Abdo', 'lname': 'Al-hebashi'},
    {'fname': 'Ali', 'lname': 'Muhammad'}
]
#  This loop will sort by the first and the last names.
# notice that in a dictionary order doesn't matter. So it could put the first name first or the last name first. 
for k in sorted (user, key=itemgetter ('fname', 'lname')):
    print (k)

# This one will sort by the first name only.
for x in sorted (user, key=itemgetter ('fname')):
    print (x)

这里已经有很多答案展示了对Python字典进行排序的流行方法。我想我应该为那些从谷歌来到这里寻找非标准想法的人添加一些不太明显的方法。

样本字典:d = {2: ' c ', 1: ' b ', 0: ' a ', 3: ' d '}

字典理解

# Converts to list, sorts, re-converts to dict
{k: v for k, v in sorted(list(d.items()))}

使用λ

排序并不总是按照严格的升序或降序进行。对于更多的条件排序，使用上述方法结合lamdas:

{k: v for k, v in sorted(d.items(), key=lambda v: ord(v[1]))}

更多的例子

这个帖子已经有足够多的好例子了。有关更多示例，以及边缘情况和奇怪情况，请参阅这篇关于Python中字典排序的文章。

字典本身并没有这样的排序条目，如果你想按某种顺序打印它们，这里有一些例子:

在Python 2.4及以上版本中:

mydict = {'carl':40,
          'alan':2,
          'bob':1,
          'danny':3}

for key in sorted(mydict):
    print "%s: %s" % (key, mydict[key])

给:

alan: 2
bob: 1
carl: 40
danny: 3

(Python低于2.4:)

keylist = mydict.keys()
keylist.sort()
for key in keylist:
    print "%s: %s" % (key, mydict[key])

以下是建议解决方案的性能:

from collections import OrderedDict
from sortedcontainers import SortedDict
import json

keys = np.random.rand(100000)
vals = np.random.rand(100000)

d = dict(zip(keys, vals))

timeit SortedDict(d)
#45.8 ms ± 780 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

timeit sorted(d.items())
#91.9 ms ± 707 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

timeit OrderedDict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda x: x[0]))
#93.7 ms ± 1.52 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

timeit dict(sorted(dic.items()))
#113 ms ± 824 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

timeit OrderedDict(sorted(dic.items()))
#122 ms ± 2.65 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

timeit json.dumps(d, sort_keys=True)
#259 ms ± 9.42 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
