x = ['Jess', 'Jack', 'Mary', 'Sophia', 'Karen',
     'Addison', 'Joseph','Jack', 'Jack', 'Eric', 'Ilona', 'Jason']
the_item = input('Enter the item that you wish to find : ')
how_many_times = 0 
for occurrence in x:
     if occurrence == the_item : 
          how_many_times += 1
print('The occurrence of', the_item, 'in', x,'is',how_many_times) 

创建了一个名字列表，其中重复了“Jack”这个名字。为了检查它的发生情况，我在名为x的列表中运行了一个for循环。每次迭代时，如果循环变量的值与从用户接收的值相同，并存储在变量the_item中，那么变量how_many_times将递增1。在获得某种价值之后。。。我们打印how_many_times，它存储单词“jack”出现的值

mot = ["compte", "france", "zied"]
lst = ["compte", "france", "france", "france", "france"]
dict((x, lst.count(x)) for x in set(mot))

这给了

{'compte': 1, 'france': 4, 'zied': 0}

list.count（x）返回x在列表中出现的次数

参见：http://docs.python.org/tutorial/datastructures.html#more-在列表上

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))

我会使用filter（），以Lukasz为例：

>>> lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 4, 1]
>>> len(filter(lambda x: x==1, lst))
