在浮点数的最常见情况下，我们希望处理整数和小数。让我们以字符串“1.1”为例。

我会尝试以下方法之一：

1.>isnumeric（）

word = "1.1"

"".join(word.split(".")).isnumeric()
>>> True

2.>isdigit（）

word = "1.1"

"".join(word.split(".")).isdigit()
>>> True

3.>isdecimal（）

word = "1.1"

"".join(word.split(".")).isdecimal()
>>> True

速度：

► 所有上述方法具有相似的速度。

%timeit "".join(word.split(".")).isnumeric()
>>> 257 ns ± 12 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)

%timeit "".join(word.split(".")).isdigit()
>>> 252 ns ± 11 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)

%timeit "".join(word.split(".")).isdecimal()
>>> 244 ns ± 7.17 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)

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))

您可以使用Unicode字符串，它们有一种方法可以满足您的需要：

>>> s = u"345"
>>> s.isnumeric()
True

Or:

>>> s = "345"
>>> u = unicode(s)
>>> u.isnumeric()
True

我需要确定字符串是否转换为基本类型（float、int、str、bool）。在互联网上找不到任何东西后，我创建了这个：

def str_to_type (s):
    """ Get possible cast type for a string

    Parameters
    ----------
    s : string

    Returns
    -------
    float,int,str,bool : type
        Depending on what it can be cast to

    """    
    try:                
        f = float(s)        
        if "." not in s:
            return int
        return float
    except ValueError:
        value = s.upper()
        if value == "TRUE" or value == "FALSE":
            return bool
        return type(s)

实例

str_to_type("true") # bool
str_to_type("6.0") # float
str_to_type("6") # int
str_to_type("6abc") # str
str_to_type(u"6abc") # unicode       

您可以捕获类型并使用它

s = "6.0"
type_ = str_to_type(s) # float
f = type_(s) 

我正在研究一个问题，这个问题使我想到了这个主题，即如何以最直观的方式将一组数据转换为字符串和数字。在阅读原始代码后，我意识到我需要的东西在两个方面有所不同：

1-如果字符串表示整数，我希望得到整数结果

2-我想要一个数字或字符串结果粘贴到数据结构中

所以我修改了原始代码来生成这个派生代码：

def string_or_number(s):
    try:
        z = int(s)
        return z
    except ValueError:
        try:
            z = float(s)
            return z
        except ValueError:
            return s

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:]), ')'
