下面是一个简短的例子，应该做的技巧与正则表达式:

import re

rep = {"condition1": "", "condition2": "text"} # define desired replacements here

# use these three lines to do the replacement
rep = dict((re.escape(k), v) for k, v in rep.iteritems()) 
#Python 3 renamed dict.iteritems to dict.items so use rep.items() for latest versions
pattern = re.compile("|".join(rep.keys()))
text = pattern.sub(lambda m: rep[re.escape(m.group(0))], text)

例如:

>>> pattern.sub(lambda m: rep[re.escape(m.group(0))], "(condition1) and --condition2--")
'() and --text--'

你真的不应该这样做，但我觉得这太酷了:

>>> replacements = {'cond1':'text1', 'cond2':'text2'}
>>> cmd = 'answer = s'
>>> for k,v in replacements.iteritems():
>>>     cmd += ".replace(%s, %s)" %(k,v)
>>> exec(cmd)

现在，答案是所有替换的结果

再说一次，这是非常俗气的，不是你应该经常使用的东西。但我很高兴知道如果你需要的话，你可以这样做。

从安德鲁的宝贵答案开始，我开发了一个脚本，从一个文件加载字典，并详细说明所有文件上打开的文件夹做替换。脚本从一个外部文件加载映射，您可以在该文件中设置分隔符。我是一个初学者，但我发现这个脚本在多个文件中做多个替换时非常有用。它在几秒钟内加载了一个包含1000多个条目的字典。这并不优雅，但对我来说很管用

import glob
import re

mapfile = input("Enter map file name with extension eg. codifica.txt: ")
sep = input("Enter map file column separator eg. |: ")
mask = input("Enter search mask with extension eg. 2010*txt for all files to be processed: ")
suff = input("Enter suffix with extension eg. _NEW.txt for newly generated files: ")

rep = {} # creation of empy dictionary

with open(mapfile) as temprep: # loading of definitions in the dictionary using input file, separator is prompted
    for line in temprep:
        (key, val) = line.strip('\n').split(sep)
        rep[key] = val

for filename in glob.iglob(mask): # recursion on all the files with the mask prompted

    with open (filename, "r") as textfile: # load each file in the variable text
        text = textfile.read()

        # start replacement
        #rep = dict((re.escape(k), v) for k, v in rep.items()) commented to enable the use in the mapping of re reserved characters
        pattern = re.compile("|".join(rep.keys()))
        text = pattern.sub(lambda m: rep[m.group(0)], text)

        #write of te output files with the prompted suffice
        target = open(filename[:-4]+"_NEW.txt", "w")
        target.write(text)
        target.close()

另一个例子: 输入列表

error_list = ['[br]', '[ex]', 'Something']
words = ['how', 'much[ex]', 'is[br]', 'the', 'fish[br]', 'noSomething', 'really']

期望的输出将是

words = ['how', 'much', 'is', 'the', 'fish', 'no', 'really']

代码:

[n[0][0] if len(n[0]) else n[1] for n in [[[w.replace(e,"") for e in error_list if e in w],w] for w in words]] 

这只是F.J和mini夸克的一个更简洁的概述，bgusach的伟大回答和最后但决定性的改进。所有你需要实现多个同步字符串替换是以下函数:

def multiple_replace(string, rep_dict):
    pattern = re.compile("|".join([re.escape(k) for k in sorted(rep_dict,key=len,reverse=True)]), flags=re.DOTALL)
    return pattern.sub(lambda x: rep_dict[x.group(0)], string)

用法:

>>>multiple_replace("Do you like cafe? No, I prefer tea.", {'cafe':'tea', 'tea':'cafe', 'like':'prefer'})
'Do you prefer tea? No, I prefer cafe.'

如果您愿意，您可以从这个更简单的函数开始创建自己的专用替换函数。

下面是另一种使用字典的方法:

listA="The cat jumped over the house".split()
modify = {word:word for number,word in enumerate(listA)}
modify["cat"],modify["jumped"]="dog","walked"
print " ".join(modify[x] for x in listA)
