在Python中,给定一个项目,如何在列表中计算它的出现次数?


一个相关但不同的问题是计算集合中每个不同元素的出现次数,将字典或列表作为直方图结果而不是单个整数。有关该问题,请参阅使用字典统计列表中的项目。

如果你能使用熊猫,那么value_counts就在那里救援。

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 4, 1]
>>> pd.Series(a).value_counts()
1    3
4    2
3    1
2    1
dtype: int64

它还会根据频率自动对结果进行排序。

如果希望结果在列表中,请执行以下操作

>>> pd.Series(a).value_counts().reset_index().values.tolist()
[[1, 3], [4, 2], [3, 1], [2, 1]]

其他回答

要计算具有共同类型的不同元素的数量,请执行以下操作:

li = ['A0','c5','A8','A2','A5','c2','A3','A9']

print sum(1 for el in li if el[0]=='A' and el[1] in '01234')

3,而不是6

我今天遇到了这个问题,在我想检查SO之前,我推出了自己的解决方案

dict((i,a.count(i)) for i in a)

对于大列表来说真的很慢。我的解决方案

def occurDict(items):
    d = {}
    for i in items:
        if i in d:
            d[i] = d[i]+1
        else:
            d[i] = 1
return d

实际上比Counter解决方案快一点,至少对于Python 2.7来说是这样。

test = [409.1, 479.0, 340.0, 282.4, 406.0, 300.0, 374.0, 253.3, 195.1, 269.0, 329.3, 250.7, 250.7, 345.3, 379.3, 275.0, 215.2, 300.0]

for i in test:
    print('{} numbers {}'.format(i, test.count(i)))

from collections import defaultdict
def count_unsorted_list_items(items):
    """
    :param items: iterable of hashable items to count
    :type items: iterable

    :returns: dict of counts like Py2.7 Counter

    """
    counts = defaultdict(int)
    for item in items:
        counts[item] += 1
    return dict(counts)

def count_sorted_list_items(items):

    if not items:
        return
    elif len(items) == 1:
        yield (items[0], 1)
        return
    prev_item = items[0]
    count = 1
    for item in items[1:]:
        if prev_item == item:
            count += 1
        else:
            yield (prev_item, count)
            count = 1
            prev_item = item
    yield (item, count)
    return


import unittest
class TestListCounters(unittest.TestCase):

        # ... [(2,2), (4,1), (2,1)]
import pandas as pd
test = [409.1, 479.0, 340.0, 282.4, 406.0, 300.0, 374.0, 253.3, 195.1, 269.0, 329.3, 250.7, 250.7, 345.3, 379.3, 275.0, 215.2, 300.0]

#turning the list into a temporary dataframe
test  = pd.DataFrame(test)

#using the very convenient value_counts() function
df_counts = test.value_counts()
df_counts

然后可以使用dfcounts.index和dfcounts.value来获取数据。
