我有一个字符串列表,我想执行一个自然的字母排序。

例如,下面的列表是自然排序(我想要的):

['elm0', 'elm1', 'Elm2', 'elm9', 'elm10', 'Elm11', 'Elm12', 'elm13']

下面是上面列表的“排序”版本(我使用sorted()得到的):

['Elm11', 'Elm12', 'Elm2', 'elm0', 'elm1', 'elm10', 'elm13', 'elm9']

我在寻找一个排序函数它的行为和第一个一样。


当前回答

让我就这一需求提出自己的看法:

from typing import Tuple, Union, Optional, Generator


StrOrInt = Union[str, int]


# On Python 3.6, string concatenation is REALLY fast
# Tested myself, and this fella also tested:
# https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2019/11/string-concat.html
def griter(s: str) -> Generator[StrOrInt, None, None]:
    last_was_digit: Optional[bool] = None
    cluster: str = ""
    for c in s:
        if last_was_digit is None:
            last_was_digit = c.isdigit()
            cluster += c
            continue
        if c.isdigit() != last_was_digit:
            if last_was_digit:
                yield int(cluster)
            else:
                yield cluster
            last_was_digit = c.isdigit()
            cluster = ""
        cluster += c
    if last_was_digit:
        yield int(cluster)
    else:
        yield cluster
    return


def grouper(s: str) -> Tuple[StrOrInt, ...]:
    return tuple(griter(s))

现在如果我们有这样的列表:

filelist = [
    'File3', 'File007', 'File3a', 'File10', 'File11', 'File1', 'File4', 'File5',
    'File9', 'File8', 'File8b1', 'File8b2', 'File8b11', 'File6'
]

我们可以简单地使用key= kwarg来进行自然排序:

>>> sorted(filelist, key=grouper)
['File1', 'File3', 'File3a', 'File4', 'File5', 'File6', 'File007', 'File8', 
'File8b1', 'File8b2', 'File8b11', 'File9', 'File10', 'File11']

当然,这里的缺点是,就像现在一样,该函数将对大写字母在小写字母之前进行排序。

我将把不区分大小写的grouper的实现留给读者:-)

其他回答

这是一个更高级的解决方案,由Claudiu和Mark Byers改进:

它使用casefold()而不是lower()来匹配字符串 您可以传递另一个键lambda来选择一个内部元素(就像您习惯使用普通排序函数一样) 它当然适用于列表。Sort, sorted, max,等等。

def natural_sort(key=None, _nsre=re.compile('([0-9]+)')):
    return lambda x: [int(text) if text.isdigit() else text.casefold()
            for text in _nsre.split(key(x) if key else x)]

使用示例:

# Original solution
data.sort(key=natural_sort)

# Select an additional key
image_files.sort(key=natural_sort(lambda x: x.original_filename))

考虑到:

data = ['Elm11', 'Elm12', 'Elm2', 'elm0', 'elm1', 'elm10', 'elm13', 'elm9']

类似于SergO的解决方案,没有外部库的1-liner将是:

data.sort(key=lambda x: int(x[3:]))

or

sorted_data = sorted(data, key=lambda x: int(x[3:]))

解释:

该解决方案使用sort的关键特性来定义将用于排序的函数。因为我们知道每个数据条目前面都有'elm',排序函数将字符串中第三个字符之后的部分(即int(x[3:]))转换为整数。如果数据的数值部分在不同的位置,那么函数的这部分将不得不改变。

上面的答案对于上面给出的具体例子是有用的,但对于更普遍的自然排序问题,却遗漏了几个有用的例子。我刚刚被其中一个案例咬了一口,所以想出了一个更彻底的解决方案:

def natural_sort_key(string_or_number):
    """
    by Scott S. Lawton <scott@ProductArchitect.com> 2014-12-11; public domain and/or CC0 license

    handles cases where simple 'int' approach fails, e.g.
        ['0.501', '0.55'] floating point with different number of significant digits
        [0.01, 0.1, 1]    already numeric so regex and other string functions won't work (and aren't required)
        ['elm1', 'Elm2']  ASCII vs. letters (not case sensitive)
    """

    def try_float(astring):
        try:
            return float(astring)
        except:
            return astring

    if isinstance(string_or_number, basestring):
        string_or_number = string_or_number.lower()

        if len(re.findall('[.]\d', string_or_number)) <= 1:
            # assume a floating point value, e.g. to correctly sort ['0.501', '0.55']
            # '.' for decimal is locale-specific, e.g. correct for the Anglosphere and Asia but not continental Europe
            return [try_float(s) for s in re.split(r'([\d.]+)', string_or_number)]
        else:
            # assume distinct fields, e.g. IP address, phone number with '.', etc.
            # caveat: might want to first split by whitespace
            # TBD: for unicode, replace isdigit with isdecimal
            return [int(s) if s.isdigit() else s for s in re.split(r'(\d+)', string_or_number)]
    else:
        # consider: add code to recurse for lists/tuples and perhaps other iterables
        return string_or_number

欢迎您的反馈。这并不是一个明确的解决方案;只是向前迈出了一步。

a = ['H1', 'H100', 'H10', 'H3', 'H2', 'H6', 'H11', 'H50', 'H5', 'H99', 'H8']

如何在python中一次读一个字母的字符串

本职位的价值

我的观点是提供一个可以普遍应用的非正则表达式解决方案。 我将创建三个函数:

find_first_digit,这是我从@AnuragUniyal借来的。它将查找字符串中第一个数字或非数字的位置。 Split_digits是一个生成器,它将字符串分成数字块和非数字块。当它是数字时,它也会产生整数。 Natural_key只是将split_digits包装成一个元组。这是我们用来排序,最大,最小的键。

功能

def find_first_digit(s, non=False):
    for i, x in enumerate(s):
        if x.isdigit() ^ non:
            return i
    return -1

def split_digits(s, case=False):
    non = True
    while s:
        i = find_first_digit(s, non)
        if i == 0:
            non = not non
        elif i == -1:
            yield int(s) if s.isdigit() else s if case else s.lower()
            s = ''
        else:
            x, s = s[:i], s[i:]
            yield int(x) if x.isdigit() else x if case else x.lower()

def natural_key(s, *args, **kwargs):
    return tuple(split_digits(s, *args, **kwargs))

我们可以看到它是一般的,因为我们可以有多个数字块:

# Note that the key has lower case letters
natural_key('asl;dkfDFKJ:sdlkfjdf809lkasdjfa_543_hh')

('asl;dkfdfkj:sdlkfjdf', 809, 'lkasdjfa_', 543, '_hh')

或保留大小写敏感:

natural_key('asl;dkfDFKJ:sdlkfjdf809lkasdjfa_543_hh', True)

('asl;dkfDFKJ:sdlkfjdf', 809, 'lkasdjfa_', 543, '_hh')

我们可以看到它以适当的顺序对OP的列表进行排序

sorted(
    ['elm0', 'elm1', 'Elm2', 'elm9', 'elm10', 'Elm11', 'Elm12', 'elm13'],
    key=natural_key
)

['elm0', 'elm1', 'Elm2', 'elm9', 'elm10', 'Elm11', 'Elm12', 'elm13']

但它也可以处理更复杂的列表:

sorted(
    ['f_1', 'e_1', 'a_2', 'g_0', 'd_0_12:2', 'd_0_1_:2'],
    key=natural_key
)

['a_2', 'd_0_1_:2', 'd_0_12:2', 'e_1', 'f_1', 'g_0']

我的正则表达式等价于

def int_maybe(x):
    return int(x) if str(x).isdigit() else x

def split_digits_re(s, case=False):
    parts = re.findall('\d+|\D+', s)
    if not case:
        return map(int_maybe, (x.lower() for x in parts))
    else:
        return map(int_maybe, parts)
    
def natural_key_re(s, *args, **kwargs):
    return tuple(split_digits_re(s, *args, **kwargs))
