例如,我有两个字典:

Dict A: {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
Dict B: {'b': 3, 'c': 4, 'd': 5}

我需要一种python的方式来“组合”两个字典,这样的结果是:

{'a': 1, 'b': 5, 'c': 7, 'd': 5}

也就是说:如果一个键在两个字典中都出现,则将它们的值相加,如果它只在一个字典中出现,则保留其值。

另外,请注意a.update(b)比a + b快2倍

from collections import Counter
a = Counter({'menu': 20, 'good': 15, 'happy': 10, 'bar': 5})
b = Counter({'menu': 1, 'good': 1, 'bar': 3})

%timeit a + b;
## 100000 loops, best of 3: 8.62 µs per loop
## The slowest run took 4.04 times longer than the fastest. This could mean that an intermediate result is being cached.

%timeit a.update(b)
## 100000 loops, best of 3: 4.51 µs per loop

其他回答

一个更通用的解决方案,它也适用于非数字值:

a = {'a': 'foo', 'b':'bar', 'c': 'baz'}
b = {'a': 'spam', 'c':'ham', 'x': 'blah'}

r = dict(a.items() + b.items() +
    [(k, a[k] + b[k]) for k in set(b) & set(a)])

或者更普通一点:

def combine_dicts(a, b, op=operator.add):
    return dict(a.items() + b.items() +
        [(k, op(a[k], b[k])) for k in set(b) & set(a)])

例如:

>>> a = {'a': 2, 'b':3, 'c':4}
>>> b = {'a': 5, 'c':6, 'x':7}

>>> import operator
>>> print combine_dicts(a, b, operator.mul)
{'a': 10, 'x': 7, 'c': 24, 'b': 3}

没有额外进口的那个!

它们是一种python标准,叫做EAFP(请求原谅比请求许可更容易)。下面的代码基于该python标准。

# The A and B dictionaries
A = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
B = {'b': 3, 'c': 4, 'd': 5}

# The final dictionary. Will contain the final outputs.
newdict = {}

# Make sure every key of A and B get into the final dictionary 'newdict'.
newdict.update(A)
newdict.update(B)

# Iterate through each key of A.
for i in A.keys():

    # If same key exist on B, its values from A and B will add together and
    # get included in the final dictionary 'newdict'.
    try:
        addition = A[i] + B[i]
        newdict[i] = addition

    # If current key does not exist in dictionary B, it will give a KeyError,
    # catch it and continue looping.
    except KeyError:
        continue

编辑:感谢jerzyk提出的改进建议。

要获得更通用和可扩展的方法,请检查mergedict。它使用singledispatch,并可以根据类型合并值。

例子:

from mergedict import MergeDict

class SumDict(MergeDict):
    @MergeDict.dispatch(int)
    def merge_int(this, other):
        return this + other

d2 = SumDict({'a': 1, 'b': 'one'})
d2.merge({'a':2, 'b': 'two'})

assert d2 == {'a': 3, 'b': 'two'}

上述解决方案非常适合具有少量计数器的场景。如果你有一个很大的列表,像这样的就更好了:

from collections import Counter

A = Counter({'a':1, 'b':2, 'c':3})
B = Counter({'b':3, 'c':4, 'd':5}) 
C = Counter({'a': 5, 'e':3})
list_of_counts = [A, B, C]

total = sum(list_of_counts, Counter())

print(total)
# Counter({'c': 7, 'a': 6, 'b': 5, 'd': 5, 'e': 3})

上述解决方案本质上是通过以下方法对计数器求和:

total = Counter()
for count in list_of_counts:
    total += count
print(total)
# Counter({'c': 7, 'a': 6, 'b': 5, 'd': 5, 'e': 3})

这个做的是同样的事情,但我认为它总是有助于看到它在下面有效地做了什么。

dict1 = {'a':1, 'b':2, 'c':3}
dict2 = {'a':3, 'g':1, 'c':4}
dict3 = {} # will store new values

for x in dict1:
    
    if x in dict2: #sum values with same key
        dict3[x] = dict1[x] +dict2[x]
    else: #add the values from x to dict1
        dict3[x] = dict1[x]
        
#search for new values not in a
for x in dict2:
    if x not in dict1:
        dict3[x] = dict2[x]
print(dict3) # {'a': 4, 'b': 2, 'c': 7, 'g': 1}
