如何计算字符串中字符出现的次数?

如。“a”在“Mary had a little lamb”中出现了4次。

我是pandas库的粉丝,尤其是value_counts()方法。你可以用它来计算字符串中每个字符的出现次数:

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> phrase = "I love the pandas library and its `value_counts()` method"
>>> pd.Series(list(phrase)).value_counts()
     8
a    5
e    4
t    4
o    3
n    3
s    3
d    3
l    3
u    2
i    2
r    2
v    2
`    2
h    2
p    1
b    1
I    1
m    1
(    1
y    1
_    1
)    1
c    1
dtype: int64

正则表达式?

import re
my_string = "Mary had a little lamb"
len(re.findall("a", my_string))

Str.count (sub[, start[, end]]) 返回子字符串sub在范围[start, end]中不重叠出现的次数。可选参数start和end被解释为片表示法。

>>> sentence = 'Mary had a little lamb'
>>> sentence.count('a')
4

Python 3

有两种方法可以做到这一点:

1)内置函数count()

sentence = 'Mary had a little lamb'
print(sentence.count('a'))`

2)不使用函数

sentence = 'Mary had a little lamb'    
count = 0

for i in sentence:
    if i == "a":
        count = count + 1

print(count)

Str.count (a)是计算字符串中单个字符的最佳解决方案。但是如果你需要统计更多的字符,你就必须读取整个字符串的次数,就像你想要统计的字符一样多。

更好的方法是:

from collections import defaultdict

text = 'Mary had a little lamb'
chars = defaultdict(int)

for char in text:
    chars[char] += 1

因此,您将有一个dict,它返回字符串中每个字母出现的次数,如果不存在则返回0。

>>>chars['a']
4
>>>chars['x']
0

对于一个不区分大小写的计数器,你可以通过继承defaultdict来覆盖mutator和accessor方法(基类的方法是只读的):

class CICounter(defaultdict):
    def __getitem__(self, k):
        return super().__getitem__(k.lower())

    def __setitem__(self, k, v):
        super().__setitem__(k.lower(), v)


chars = CICounter(int)

for char in text:
    chars[char] += 1

>>>chars['a']
4
>>>chars['M']
2
>>>chars['x']
0

这个简单直接的函数可能会有帮助:

def check_freq(x):
    freq = {}
    for c in set(x):
       freq[c] = x.count(c)
    return freq

check_freq("abbabcbdbabdbdbabababcbcbab")
{'a': 7, 'b': 14, 'c': 3, 'd': 3}

如果需要理解:

def check_freq(x):
    return {c: x.count(c) for c in set(x)}
