如果有人需要一个更简单的方法，树只是一个递归嵌套的列表(因为set是不可哈希的):

[root, [child_1, [[child_11, []], [child_12, []]], [child_2, []]]]

每个分支都是一对:[object， [children]] 每个叶子是一对:[object， []]

但是如果你需要一个带有方法的类，你可以使用任何树。

如果您想要创建树数据结构，那么首先必须创建treeElement对象。如果您创建了treeElement对象，那么您可以决定树的行为。

下面是TreeElement类:

class TreeElement (object):

def __init__(self):
    self.elementName = None
    self.element = []
    self.previous = None
    self.elementScore = None
    self.elementParent = None
    self.elementPath = []
    self.treeLevel = 0

def goto(self, data):
    for child in range(0, len(self.element)):
        if (self.element[child].elementName == data):
            return self.element[child]

def add(self):

    single_element = TreeElement()
    single_element.elementName = self.elementName
    single_element.previous = self.elementParent
    single_element.elementScore = self.elementScore
    single_element.elementPath = self.elementPath
    single_element.treeLevel = self.treeLevel

    self.element.append(single_element)

    return single_element

现在，我们必须使用这个元素来创建树，在这个例子中我使用的是A*树。

class AStarAgent(Agent):
# Initialization Function: Called one time when the game starts
def registerInitialState(self, state):
    return;

# GetAction Function: Called with every frame
def getAction(self, state):

    # Sorting function for the queue
    def sortByHeuristic(each_element):

        if each_element.elementScore:
            individual_score = each_element.elementScore[0][0] + each_element.treeLevel
        else:
            individual_score = admissibleHeuristic(each_element)

        return individual_score

    # check the game is over or not
    if state.isWin():
        print('Job is done')
        return Directions.STOP
    elif state.isLose():
        print('you lost')
        return Directions.STOP

    # Create empty list for the next states
    astar_queue = []
    astar_leaf_queue = []
    astar_tree_level = 0
    parent_tree_level = 0

    # Create Tree from the give node element
    astar_tree = TreeElement()
    astar_tree.elementName = state
    astar_tree.treeLevel = astar_tree_level
    astar_tree = astar_tree.add()

    # Add first element into the queue
    astar_queue.append(astar_tree)

    # Traverse all the elements of the queue
    while astar_queue:

        # Sort the element from the queue
        if len(astar_queue) > 1:
            astar_queue.sort(key=lambda x: sortByHeuristic(x))

        # Get the first node from the queue
        astar_child_object = astar_queue.pop(0)
        astar_child_state = astar_child_object.elementName

        # get all legal actions for the current node
        current_actions = astar_child_state.getLegalPacmanActions()

        if current_actions:

            # get all the successor state for these actions
            for action in current_actions:

                # Get the successor of the current node
                next_state = astar_child_state.generatePacmanSuccessor(action)

                if next_state:

                    # evaluate the successor states using scoreEvaluation heuristic
                    element_scored = [(admissibleHeuristic(next_state), action)]

                    # Increase the level for the child
                    parent_tree_level = astar_tree.goto(astar_child_state)
                    if parent_tree_level:
                        astar_tree_level = parent_tree_level.treeLevel + 1
                    else:
                        astar_tree_level += 1

                    # create tree for the finding the data
                    astar_tree.elementName = next_state
                    astar_tree.elementParent = astar_child_state
                    astar_tree.elementScore = element_scored
                    astar_tree.elementPath.append(astar_child_state)
                    astar_tree.treeLevel = astar_tree_level
                    astar_object = astar_tree.add()

                    # If the state exists then add that to the queue
                    astar_queue.append(astar_object)

                else:
                    # Update the value leaf into the queue
                    astar_leaf_state = astar_tree.goto(astar_child_state)
                    astar_leaf_queue.append(astar_leaf_state)

你可以从对象中添加/删除任何元素，但要使结构为完整的。

Greg Hewgill的回答很好，但如果你每层需要更多的节点，你可以使用列表|字典来创建它们:然后使用方法按名称或顺序(如id)访问它们。

class node(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.name=None
        self.node=[]
        self.otherInfo = None
        self.prev=None
    def nex(self,child):
        "Gets a node by number"
        return self.node[child]
    def prev(self):
        return self.prev
    def goto(self,data):
        "Gets the node by name"
        for child in range(0,len(self.node)):
            if(self.node[child].name==data):
                return self.node[child]
    def add(self):
        node1=node()
        self.node.append(node1)
        node1.prev=self
        return node1

现在只需创建一个根并建立它: 例:

tree=node()  #create a node
tree.name="root" #name it root
tree.otherInfo="blue" #or what ever 
tree=tree.add() #add a node to the root
tree.name="node1" #name it

    root
   /
child1

tree=tree.add()
tree.name="grandchild1"

       root
      /
   child1
   /
grandchild1

tree=tree.prev()
tree=tree.add()
tree.name="gchild2"

          root
           /
        child1
        /    \
grandchild1 gchild2

tree=tree.prev()
tree=tree.prev()
tree=tree.add()
tree=tree.name="child2"

              root
             /   \
        child1  child2
       /     \
grandchild1 gchild2


tree=tree.prev()
tree=tree.goto("child1") or tree=tree.nex(0)
tree.name="changed"

              root
              /   \
         changed   child2
        /      \
  grandchild1  gchild2

这应该足够让你开始思考如何让它工作了

嗨，你可以试试itertree(我是作者)。

该包与任何树包的方向相同，但关注点略有不同。在巨大的树(>100000个项目)上的性能要好得多，它处理迭代器具有有效的过滤机制。

>>>from itertree import *
>>>root=iTree('root')

>>># add some children:
>>>root.append(iTree('Africa',data={'surface':30200000,'inhabitants':1257000000}))

>>># you might use __iadd__ operator for adding too:
>>>root+=iTree('Antarktika', data={'surface': 14000000, 'inhabitants': 1100})

>>># for building next level we select per index:

>>>root[2]+=iTree('Mexico', data={'surface': 1972550, 'inhabitants': 127600000 })
>>># extend multiple items:
>>>root[3].extend([iTree('Australia', data={'surface': 7688287, 'inhabitants': 25700000 }), iTree('New Zealand', data={'surface': 269652, 'inhabitants': 4900000 })])
>>>root[4]+=iTree('France', data={'surface': 632733, 'inhabitants': 67400000 }))
>>># select parent per TagIdx - remember in itertree you might put items with same tag multiple times:
>>>root[TagIdx('Europe'0)]+=iTree('Finland', data={'surface': 338465, 'inhabitants': 5536146 })

创建的树可以被渲染:

>>>root.render()
iTree('root')
     └──iTree('Africa', data=iTData({'surface': 30200000, 'inhabitants': 1257000000}))
         └──iTree('Ghana', data=iTData({'surface': 238537, 'inhabitants': 30950000}))
         └──iTree('Niger', data=iTData({'surface': 1267000, 'inhabitants': 23300000}))
     └──iTree('Asia', data=iTData({'surface': 44600000, 'inhabitants': 4000000000}))

         └──iTree('Mexico', data=iTData({'surface': 1972550, 'inhabitants': 127600000}))
     └──iTree('Australia&Oceania', data=iTData({'surface': 8600000, 'inhabitants': 36000000}))
         └──iTree('Australia', data=iTData({'surface': 7688287, 'inhabitants': 25700000}))
         └──iTree('New Zealand', data=iTData({'surface': 269652, 'inhabitants': 4900000}))
     └──iTree('Europe', data=iTData({'surface': 10523000, 'inhabitants': 746000000}))
         └──iTree('France', data=iTData({'surface': 632733, 'inhabitants': 67400000}))
         └──iTree('Finland', data=iTData({'surface': 338465, 'inhabitants': 5536146}))
     └──iTree('Antarktika', data=iTData({'surface': 14000000, 'inhabitants': 1100}))

过滤可以这样做:

>>>item_filter = Filter.iTFilterData(data_key='inhabitants', data_value=iTInterval(0, 20000000))
>>>iterator=root.iter_all(item_filter=item_filter)
>>>for i in iterator:
>>>    print(i)
iTree("'New Zealand'", data=iTData({'surface': 269652, 'inhabitants': 4900000}), subtree=[])
iTree("'Finland'", data=iTData({'surface': 338465, 'inhabitants': 5536146}), subtree=[])
iTree("'Antarktika'", data=iTData({'surface': 14000000, 'inhabitants': 1100}), subtree=[])

Python不像Java那样具有相当广泛的“内置”数据结构。但是，因为Python是动态的，所以很容易创建通用树。例如，二叉树可能是:

class Tree:
    def __init__(self):
        self.left = None
        self.right = None
        self.data = None

你可以这样使用它:

root = Tree()
root.data = "root"
root.left = Tree()
root.left.data = "left"
root.right = Tree()
root.right.data = "right"

如果每个节点需要任意数量的子节点，则使用子节点列表:

class Tree:
    def __init__(self, data):
        self.children = []
        self.data = data

left = Tree("left")
middle = Tree("middle")
right = Tree("right")
root = Tree("root")
root.children = [left, middle, right]
