如何在Python中检查字符串是否表示数值?

def is_number(s):
    try:
        float(s)
        return True
    except ValueError:
        return False

上述方法可行,但似乎很笨拙。


如果您正在测试的内容来自用户输入,那么即使它表示int或float,它仍然是一个字符串。请参阅如何将输入读取为数字?用于转换输入,并询问用户输入,直到他们给出有效响应以确保输入在继续之前表示int或float(或其他要求)。

对于我非常简单和常见的用例:这个用键盘书写的字符串是数字吗?

我通读了大部分答案,最后得到了:

def isNumeric(string):
    result = True
    try:
        x = float(string)
       result = (x == x) and (x - 1 != x)
    except ValueError:
        result = False
    return result

对于(+/-)NaN和(+-)inf,它将返回False。

我想看看哪种方法最快。总的来说,check_replace函数给出了最佳和最一致的结果。check_exception函数给出了最快的结果,但前提是没有触发异常——这意味着它的代码是最有效的,但抛出异常的开销非常大。

请注意,检查成功的强制转换是唯一准确的方法,例如,这与check_exception一起工作,但其他两个测试函数将为有效的float返回False:

huge_number = float('1e+100')

以下是基准代码:

import time, re, random, string

ITERATIONS = 10000000

class Timer:    
    def __enter__(self):
        self.start = time.clock()
        return self
    def __exit__(self, *args):
        self.end = time.clock()
        self.interval = self.end - self.start

def check_regexp(x):
    return re.compile("^\d*\.?\d*$").match(x) is not None

def check_replace(x):
    return x.replace('.','',1).isdigit()

def check_exception(s):
    try:
        float(s)
        return True
    except ValueError:
        return False

to_check = [check_regexp, check_replace, check_exception]

print('preparing data...')
good_numbers = [
    str(random.random() / random.random()) 
    for x in range(ITERATIONS)]

bad_numbers = ['.' + x for x in good_numbers]

strings = [
    ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_uppercase + string.digits) for _ in range(random.randint(1,10)))
    for x in range(ITERATIONS)]

print('running test...')
for func in to_check:
    with Timer() as t:
        for x in good_numbers:
            res = func(x)
    print('%s with good floats: %s' % (func.__name__, t.interval))
    with Timer() as t:
        for x in bad_numbers:
            res = func(x)
    print('%s with bad floats: %s' % (func.__name__, t.interval))
    with Timer() as t:
        for x in strings:
            res = func(x)
    print('%s with strings: %s' % (func.__name__, t.interval))

通过返回比True和False更有用的值,可以以有用的方式概括异常技术。例如,此函数将引号放在字符串周围,但不使用数字。这正是我需要的快速而肮脏的过滤器来为R定义一些变量。

import sys

def fix_quotes(s):
    try:
        float(s)
        return s
    except ValueError:
        return '"{0}"'.format(s)

for line in sys.stdin:
    input = line.split()
    print input[0], '<- c(', ','.join(fix_quotes(c) for c in input[1:]), ')'

使用以下方法处理所有情况:-

import re
a=re.match('((\d+[\.]\d*$)|(\.)\d+$)' ,  '2.3') 
a=re.match('((\d+[\.]\d*$)|(\.)\d+$)' ,  '2.')
a=re.match('((\d+[\.]\d*$)|(\.)\d+$)' ,  '.3')
a=re.match('((\d+[\.]\d*$)|(\.)\d+$)' ,  '2.3sd')
a=re.match('((\d+[\.]\d*$)|(\.)\d+$)' ,  '2.3')

一个快速而简单的选项是检查数据类型:

def is_number(value):
    return type(value) in [int, float]

或者,如果要测试字符串的值是否为数字:

def isNumber (value):
    return True if type(value) in [int, float] else str(value).replace('.','',1).isdigit()

测验:

>>> isNumber(1)
True

>>> isNumber(1/3)
True

>>> isNumber(1.3)
True

>>> isNumber('1.3')
True

>>> isNumber('s1.3')
False

我知道我参加晚会迟到了,但我想出了一个不在这里的解决方案:此解决方案遵循Python中的EAFP原则

def get_number_from_string(value):
    try:
        int_value = int(value)
        return int_value

    except ValueError:
        return float(value)

说明:

如果字符串中的值是一个浮点数,并且我首先尝试将其解析为一个int,那么它将抛出一个ValueError。因此,我捕捉到该错误,并将该值解析为float和return。
