如何将任意长度的列表拆分为大小相等的块?


请参阅如果数据结果将直接用于循环,并且不需要存储,则如何以块形式遍历列表。

对于字符串输入的同一问题,请参见每n个字符拆分字符串?。相同的技术通常适用,但也有一些变化。

这个问题让我想起Raku(以前的Perl6).comb(n)方法。它将字符串分成n个大小的块。(还有更多,但我会省略细节。)

在Python3中实现一个类似的函数作为lambda表达式非常简单:

comb = lambda s,n: (s[i:i+n] for i in range(0,len(s),n))

然后你可以这样称呼它:

some_list = list(range(0, 20))  # creates a list of 20 elements
generator = comb(some_list, 4)  # creates a generator that will generate lists of 4 elements
for sublist in generator:
    print(sublist)  # prints a sublist of four elements, as it's generated

当然,您不必将生成器分配给变量;你可以直接这样循环:

for sublist in comb(some_list, 4):
    print(sublist)  # prints a sublist of four elements, as it's generated

另外,此comb()函数还对字符串进行操作:

list( comb('catdogant', 3) )  # returns ['cat', 'dog', 'ant']

不调用len(),这对大型列表很有用:

def splitter(l, n):
    i = 0
    chunk = l[:n]
    while chunk:
        yield chunk
        i += n
        chunk = l[i:i+n]

这是可迭代的:

def isplitter(l, n):
    l = iter(l)
    chunk = list(islice(l, n))
    while chunk:
        yield chunk
        chunk = list(islice(l, n))

上述产品的功能风味:

def isplitter2(l, n):
    return takewhile(bool,
                     (tuple(islice(start, n))
                            for start in repeat(iter(l))))

OR:

def chunks_gen_sentinel(n, seq):
    continuous_slices = imap(islice, repeat(iter(seq)), repeat(0), repeat(n))
    return iter(imap(tuple, continuous_slices).next,())

OR:

def chunks_gen_filter(n, seq):
    continuous_slices = imap(islice, repeat(iter(seq)), repeat(0), repeat(n))
    return takewhile(bool,imap(tuple, continuous_slices))

这是一个生成大小均匀的块的生成器:

def chunks(lst, n):
    """Yield successive n-sized chunks from lst."""
    for i in range(0, len(lst), n):
        yield lst[i:i + n]
import pprint
pprint.pprint(list(chunks(range(10, 75), 10)))
[[10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19],
 [20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29],
 [30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39],
 [40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49],
 [50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59],
 [60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69],
 [70, 71, 72, 73, 74]]

对于Python 2,使用xrange代替range:

def chunks(lst, n):
    """Yield successive n-sized chunks from lst."""
    for i in xrange(0, len(lst), n):
        yield lst[i:i + n]

下面是一行理解列表。不过,上面的方法更可取,因为使用命名函数使代码更容易理解。对于Python 3:

[lst[i:i + n] for i in range(0, len(lst), n)]

对于Python 2:

[lst[i:i + n] for i in xrange(0, len(lst), n)]

我很惊讶没有人想到使用iter的双参数形式:

from itertools import islice

def chunk(it, size):
    it = iter(it)
    return iter(lambda: tuple(islice(it, size)), ())

演示:

>>> list(chunk(range(14), 3))
[(0, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5), (6, 7, 8), (9, 10, 11), (12, 13)]

这适用于任何可迭代的对象,并延迟生成输出。它返回元组而不是迭代器,但我认为它还是有一定的优雅。它也不会垫;如果您需要填充,上面的一个简单变体就足够了:

from itertools import islice, chain, repeat

def chunk_pad(it, size, padval=None):
    it = chain(iter(it), repeat(padval))
    return iter(lambda: tuple(islice(it, size)), (padval,) * size)

演示:

>>> list(chunk_pad(range(14), 3))
[(0, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5), (6, 7, 8), (9, 10, 11), (12, 13, None)]
>>> list(chunk_pad(range(14), 3, 'a'))
[(0, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5), (6, 7, 8), (9, 10, 11), (12, 13, 'a')]

与基于izip_longest的解决方案一样,上面的解决方案也始终适用。据我所知,对于可选pad的函数,没有单行或双线itertools配方。通过结合以上两种方法,这一方法非常接近:

_no_padding = object()

def chunk(it, size, padval=_no_padding):
    if padval == _no_padding:
        it = iter(it)
        sentinel = ()
    else:
        it = chain(iter(it), repeat(padval))
        sentinel = (padval,) * size
    return iter(lambda: tuple(islice(it, size)), sentinel)

演示:

>>> list(chunk(range(14), 3))
[(0, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5), (6, 7, 8), (9, 10, 11), (12, 13)]
>>> list(chunk(range(14), 3, None))
[(0, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5), (6, 7, 8), (9, 10, 11), (12, 13, None)]
>>> list(chunk(range(14), 3, 'a'))
[(0, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5), (6, 7, 8), (9, 10, 11), (12, 13, 'a')]

我相信这是提议的提供可选填充的最短的分块器。

正如Tomasz Gandor所观察到的,如果两个填充块遇到一长串填充值,它们会意外停止。以下是以合理方式解决该问题的最后一个变体:

_no_padding = object()
def chunk(it, size, padval=_no_padding):
    it = iter(it)
    chunker = iter(lambda: tuple(islice(it, size)), ())
    if padval == _no_padding:
        yield from chunker
    else:
        for ch in chunker:
            yield ch if len(ch) == size else ch + (padval,) * (size - len(ch))

演示:

>>> list(chunk([1, 2, (), (), 5], 2))
[(1, 2), ((), ()), (5,)]
>>> list(chunk([1, 2, None, None, 5], 2, None))
[(1, 2), (None, None), (5, None)]

简单而优雅

L = range(1, 1000)
print [L[x:x+10] for x in xrange(0, len(L), 10)]

或者如果您愿意:

def chunks(L, n): return [L[x: x+n] for x in xrange(0, len(L), n)]
chunks(L, 10)

我知道这有点过时,但还没有人提到numpy.array_split:

import numpy as np

lst = range(50)
np.array_split(lst, 5)

结果:

[array([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]),
 array([10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19]),
 array([20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29]),
 array([30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39]),
 array([40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49])]
