找到Python列表中最常见元素的有效方法是什么?

我的列表项可能不是可哈希的,所以不能使用字典。 同样,在抽取的情况下,应返回索引最低的项。例子:

>>> most_common(['duck', 'duck', 'goose'])
'duck'
>>> most_common(['goose', 'duck', 'duck', 'goose'])
'goose'

一行程序:

def most_common (lst):
    return max(((item, lst.count(item)) for item in set(lst)), key=lambda a: a[1])[0]

最常见的元素应该是在数组中出现超过N/2次的元素,其中N是len(数组)。下面的技术将以O(n)个时间复杂度完成,只消耗O(1)个辅助空间。

from collections import Counter

def majorityElement(arr):        
    majority_elem = Counter(arr)
    size = len(arr)
    for key, val in majority_elem.items():
        if val > size/2:
            return key
    return -1
>>> li  = ['goose', 'duck', 'duck']

>>> def foo(li):
         st = set(li)
         mx = -1
         for each in st:
             temp = li.count(each):
             if mx < temp:
                 mx = temp 
                 h = each 
         return h

>>> foo(li)
'duck'

这是O(n)解。

mydict   = {}
cnt, itm = 0, ''
for item in reversed(lst):
     mydict[item] = mydict.get(item, 0) + 1
     if mydict[item] >= cnt :
         cnt, itm = mydict[item], item

print itm

(reversed用于确保它返回最低的索引项)

这是一个很简单的解,时间复杂度是线性的

L =['鹅','鸭','鸭']

def most_common (L):

current_winner = 0
max_repeated = None
for i in L:
    amount_times = L.count(i)
    if amount_times > current_winner:
        current_winner = amount_times
        max_repeated = i

return max_repeated

打印(most_common (L)

“鸭子”

number是列表中重复次数最多的元素吗

def mostCommonElement(list):
  count = {} // dict holder
  max = 0 // keep track of the count by key
  result = None // holder when count is greater than max
  for i in list:
    if i not in count:
      count[i] = 1
    else:
      count[i] += 1
    if count[i] > max:
      max = count[i]
      result = i
  return result

主要组合(“a”、“b”、“a”、“c”)->“a”
