我只是要帮我妻子做一些python类的事情，所以我写了这段代码来告诉她如何做。正如标题所示，它只替换键名。这是非常罕见的，你必须替换一个键名，并保持字典的顺序完整，但我还是想分享，因为这篇文章是当你搜索它时谷歌返回的，即使它是一个非常老的线程。

代码:

dictionary = {
    "cat": "meow",
    "dog": "woof",
    "cow": "ding ding ding",
    "goat": "beh"
}


def countKeys(dictionary):
    num = 0
    for key, value in dictionary.items():
        num += 1
    return num


def keyPosition(dictionary, search):
    num = 0
    for key, value in dictionary.items():
        if key == search:
            return num
        num += 1


def replaceKey(dictionary, position, newKey):
    num = 0
    updatedDictionary = {}
    for key, value in dictionary.items():
        if num == position:
            updatedDictionary.update({newKey: value})
        else:
            updatedDictionary.update({key: value})
        num += 1
    return updatedDictionary


for x in dictionary:
    print("A", x, "goes", dictionary[x])
    numKeys = countKeys(dictionary)

print("There are", numKeys, "animals in this list.\n")
print("Woops, that's not what a cow says...")

keyPos = keyPosition(dictionary, "cow")
print("Cow is in the", keyPos, "position, lets put a fox there instead...\n")
dictionary = replaceKey(dictionary, keyPos, "fox")

for x in dictionary:
    print("A", x, "goes", dictionary[x])

输出:

A cat goes meow
A dog goes woof
A cow goes ding ding ding
A goat goes beh
There are 4 animals in this list.

Woops, that's not what a cow says...
Cow is in the 2 position, lets put a fox there instead...

A cat goes meow
A dog goes woof
A fox goes ding ding ding
A goat goes beh

流行与新鲜

>>>a = {1:2, 3:4}
>>>a[5] = a.pop(1)
>>>a
{3: 4, 5: 2}
>>> 

只需2步即可轻松完成:

dictionary[new_key] = dictionary[old_key]
del dictionary[old_key]

或者一步:

dictionary[new_key] = dictionary.pop(old_key)

如果字典[old_key]未定义，将引发KeyError。注意，这将删除字典[old_key]。

>>> dictionary = { 1: 'one', 2:'two', 3:'three' }
>>> dictionary['ONE'] = dictionary.pop(1)
>>> dictionary
{2: 'two', 3: 'three', 'ONE': 'one'}
>>> dictionary['ONE'] = dictionary.pop(1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
KeyError: 1

这个函数获得一个字典，另一个字典指定如何重命名键;它返回一个新的字典，带有重命名的键:

def rekey(inp_dict, keys_replace):
    return {keys_replace.get(k, k): v for k, v in inp_dict.items()}

测试:

def test_rekey():
    assert rekey({'a': 1, "b": 2, "c": 3}, {"b": "beta"}) == {'a': 1, "beta": 2, "c": 3}

转换字典中的所有键

假设这是你的字典:

>>> sample = {'person-id': '3', 'person-name': 'Bob'}

将示例字典键中的所有破折号转换为下划线:

>>> sample = {key.replace('-', '_'): sample.pop(key) for key in sample.keys()}
>>> sample
>>> {'person_id': '3', 'person_name': 'Bob'}

因为键是字典用来查找值的，所以实际上不能更改它们。您可以做的最接近的事情是保存与旧键相关联的值，删除它，然后使用替换键和保存的值添加一个新条目。其他几个答案说明了实现这一目标的不同方式。
