可能不是最有效的，需要额外的传递才能删除重复项。

功能实现：

arr = np.array(['a','a','b','b','b','c'])
print(set(map(lambda x  : (x , list(arr).count(x)) , arr)))

返回：

{('c', 1), ('b', 3), ('a', 2)}

或返回为dict：

print(dict(map(lambda x  : (x , list(arr).count(x)) , arr)))

返回：

{'b': 3, 'c': 1, 'a': 2}

以下是三种解决方案：

Fastest是使用for循环并将其存储在Dict中。

import time
from collections import Counter


def countElement(a):
    g = {}
    for i in a:
        if i in g: 
            g[i] +=1
        else: 
            g[i] =1
    return g


z = [1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,3,4,5,5,234,23,3,12,3,123,12,31,23,13,2,4,23,42,42,34,234,23,42,34,23,423,42,34,23,423,4,234,23,42,34,23,4,23,423,4,23,4]


#Solution 1 - Faster
st = time.monotonic()
for i in range(1000000):
    b = countElement(z)
et = time.monotonic()
print(b)
print('Simple for loop and storing it in dict - Duration: {}'.format(et - st))

#Solution 2 - Fast
st = time.monotonic()
for i in range(1000000):
    a = Counter(z)
et = time.monotonic()
print (a)
print('Using collections.Counter - Duration: {}'.format(et - st))

#Solution 3 - Slow
st = time.monotonic()
for i in range(1000000):
    g = dict([(i, z.count(i)) for i in set(z)])
et = time.monotonic()
print(g)
print('Using list comprehension - Duration: {}'.format(et - st))

虽然这是一个很古老的问题，但由于我没有找到一个单行，所以我做了一个。

# original numbers in list
l = [1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4]

# empty dictionary to hold pair of number and its count
d = {}

# loop through all elements and store count
[ d.update( {i:d.get(i, 0)+1} ) for i in l ]

print(d)
# {1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 3, 4: 1}

还可以使用内置模块运算符的countOf方法。

>>> import operator
>>> operator.countOf([1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 4, 1], 1)

如果您想一次计算所有值，可以使用numpy数组和bincount非常快速地完成，如下所示

import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 4, 1])
np.bincount(a)

这给出了

>>> array([0, 3, 1, 1, 2])
