试试这个检查副本

>>> def checkDuplicate(List):
    duplicate={}
    for i in List:
            ## checking whether the item is already present in dictionary or not
            ## increasing count if present
            ## initializing count to 1 if not present

        duplicate[i]=duplicate.get(i,0)+1

    return [k for k,v in duplicate.items() if v>1]

>>> checkDuplicate([1,2,3,"s",1,2,3])
[1, 2, 3]

尽管它的复杂度是O(n log n)，但这似乎有点竞争性，请参阅下面的基准测试。

a = sorted(a)
dupes = list(set(a[::2]) & set(a[1::2]))

排序会把副本放在一起，所以它们都在偶数下标和奇数下标处。唯一值只能在偶数或奇数下标处存在，不能同时存在。所以偶数下标值和奇数下标值的交集就是重复项。

基准测试结果:

这使用了MSeifert的基准测试，但只使用了从接受的答案(georgs)、最慢的解决方案、最快的解决方案(不包括it_duplcopies，因为它不唯一重复)和我的解决方案。否则就太拥挤了，颜色也太相似了。

如果允许修改给定的列表，那么第一行可以是a.sort()，这样会快一些。但是基准会多次重用相同的列表，因此修改它会打乱基准。

显然set(a[::2]).intersection(a[1::2])不会创建第二个集合，而且速度会快一点，但它也会长一点。

你可以使用iteration_utilities.duplicate:

>>> from iteration_utilities import duplicates

>>> list(duplicates([1,1,2,1,2,3,4,2]))
[1, 1, 2, 2]

或者如果你只想要一个副本，可以结合iteration_utilities.unique_everseen:

>>> from iteration_utilities import unique_everseen

>>> list(unique_everseen(duplicates([1,1,2,1,2,3,4,2])))
[1, 2]

它也可以处理不可哈希的元素(但是以性能为代价):

>>> list(duplicates([[1], [2], [1], [3], [1]]))
[[1], [1]]

>>> list(unique_everseen(duplicates([[1], [2], [1], [3], [1]])))
[[1]]

这是只有少数其他方法可以处理的问题。

基准

我做了一个快速的基准测试，其中包含了这里提到的大部分(但不是全部)方法。

第一个基准测试只包含了很小范围的列表长度，因为一些方法具有O(n**2)行为。

在图表中，y轴代表时间，所以值越低越好。它还绘制了log-log，以便更好地可视化广泛的值范围:

除去O(n**2)方法，我在一个列表中做了另一个多达50万个元素的基准测试:

正如您所看到的iteration_utilities。duplicate方法比任何其他方法都快，甚至连链接unique_everseen(duplicate(…))也比其他方法更快或同样快。

这里需要注意的另一件有趣的事情是，熊猫方法对于小列表非常慢，但可以轻松地竞争较长的列表。

然而，由于这些基准测试显示大多数方法的性能大致相同，因此使用哪一种并不重要(除了有O(n**2)运行时的3种方法)。

免责声明

1这是我写的一个第三方库:iteration_utilities。

list2 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3]
lset = set()
[(lset.add(item), list2.append(item))
 for item in list2 if item not in lset]
print list(lset)

还有其他测试。当然要做……

set([x for x in l if l.count(x) > 1])

.．.代价太大了。使用下一个final方法大约快500倍(数组越长结果越好):

def dups_count_dict(l):
    d = {}

    for item in l:
        if item not in d:
            d[item] = 0

        d[item] += 1

    result_d = {key: val for key, val in d.iteritems() if val > 1}

    return result_d.keys()

只有2个循环，没有非常昂贵的l.count()操作。

下面是一个比较方法的代码。代码如下，输出如下:

dups_count: 13.368s # this is a function which uses l.count()
dups_count_dict: 0.014s # this is a final best function (of the 3 functions)
dups_count_counter: 0.024s # collections.Counter

    other_results = results[1:]

    for other_result in other_results:
        assert set(primary_result) == set(other_result) and len(primary_result) == len(other_result)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    dups_count_time = TimerCounter()
    dups_count_dict_time = TimerCounter()
    dups_count_counter = TimerCounter()

    l = gen_array()

    for i in range(3):
        dups_count_time.start()
        result1 = dups_count(l)
        dups_count_time.stop()

        dups_count_dict_time.start()
        result2 = dups_count_dict(l)
        dups_count_dict_time.stop()

        dups_count_counter.start()
        result3 = dups_counter(l)
        dups_count_counter.stop()

        assert_equal_results(result1, result2, result3)

    print 'dups_count: %.3f' % dups_count_time.get_time_sum()
    print 'dups_count_dict: %.3f' % dups_count_dict_time.get_time_sum()
    print 'dups_count_counter: %.3f' % dups_count_counter.get_time_sum()

一句话解决方案:

set([i for i in list if sum([1 for a in list if a == i]) > 1])
