good.append(x) if x in goodvals else bad.append(x)

来自@dansalmo的这个优雅简洁的回答被埋没在评论中，所以我只是把它作为一个答案转发到这里，这样它就能得到应有的重视，尤其是对新读者来说。

完整的例子:

good, bad = [], []
for x in my_list:
    good.append(x) if x in goodvals else bad.append(x)

下面是惰性迭代器方法:

from itertools import tee

def split_on_condition(seq, condition):
    l1, l2 = tee((condition(item), item) for item in seq)
    return (i for p, i in l1 if p), (i for p, i in l2 if not p)

它对每个项计算一次条件，并返回两个生成器，第一个生成条件为真时序列中的值，另一个生成条件为假时序列中的值。

因为它是惰性的，你可以在任何迭代器上使用它，甚至是无限迭代器:

from itertools import count, islice

def is_prime(n):
    return n > 1 and all(n % i for i in xrange(2, n))

primes, not_primes = split_on_condition(count(), is_prime)
print("First 10 primes", list(islice(primes, 10)))
print("First 10 non-primes", list(islice(not_primes, 10)))

通常情况下，非惰性列表返回方法会更好:

def split_on_condition(seq, condition):
    a, b = [], []
    for item in seq:
        (a if condition(item) else b).append(item)
    return a, b

编辑:对于您更具体的用例，将项目按某些键分割到不同的列表中，这里有一个通用函数:

DROP_VALUE = lambda _:_
def split_by_key(seq, resultmapping, keyfunc, default=DROP_VALUE):
    """Split a sequence into lists based on a key function.

        seq - input sequence
        resultmapping - a dictionary that maps from target lists to keys that go to that list
        keyfunc - function to calculate the key of an input value
        default - the target where items that don't have a corresponding key go, by default they are dropped
    """
    result_lists = dict((key, []) for key in resultmapping)
    appenders = dict((key, result_lists[target].append) for target, keys in resultmapping.items() for key in keys)

    if default is not DROP_VALUE:
        result_lists.setdefault(default, [])
        default_action = result_lists[default].append
    else:
        default_action = DROP_VALUE

    for item in seq:
        appenders.get(keyfunc(item), default_action)(item)

    return result_lists

用法:

def file_extension(f):
    return f[2].lower()

split_files = split_by_key(files, {'images': IMAGE_TYPES}, keyfunc=file_extension, default='anims')
print split_files['images']
print split_files['anims']

good.append(x) if x in goodvals else bad.append(x)

来自@dansalmo的这个优雅简洁的回答被埋没在评论中，所以我只是把它作为一个答案转发到这里，这样它就能得到应有的重视，尤其是对新读者来说。

完整的例子:

good, bad = [], []
for x in my_list:
    good.append(x) if x in goodvals else bad.append(x)

images = [f for f in files if f[2].lower() in IMAGE_TYPES]
anims  = [f for f in files if f not in images]

当条件较长时很好，例如在您的示例中。读者不需要弄清楚否定条件以及它是否适用于所有其他情况。

所有提出的解决方案的问题是，它将扫描和应用过滤功能两次。我会做一个简单的小函数，像这样:

def split_into_two_lists(lst, f):
    a = []
    b = []
    for elem in lst:
        if f(elem):
            a.append(elem)
        else:
            b.append(elem)
    return a, b

这样你就不会重复处理任何东西，也不会重复代码。

这个问题已经有很多答案了，但似乎都不如我最喜欢的解决这个问题的方法，这种方法只遍历和测试每个项目一次，并使用列表理解的速度来构建两个输出列表之一，因此它只需要使用相对较慢的附加来构建一个输出列表:

bad = []
good = [x for x in mylist if x in goodvals or bad.append(x)]

In my answer to a similar question, I explain how this approach works (a combination of Python's greedy evaluation of or refraining from executing the append for "good" items, and append returning a false-like value which leaves the if condition false for "bad" items), and I show timeit results indicating that this approach outcompetes alternatives like those suggested here, especially in cases where the majority of items will go into the list built by list-comprehension (in this case, the good list).
