我想取列表x和y的差值:

>>> x = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
>>> y = [1, 3, 5, 7, 9]  
>>> x - y
# should return [0, 2, 4, 6, 8]

如果列表允许重复元素,你可以使用Counter from collections:

from collections import Counter
result = list((Counter(x)-Counter(y)).elements())

如果你需要保留x中元素的顺序:

result = [ v for c in [Counter(y)] for v in x if not c[v] or c.subtract([v]) ]

这个例子减去了两个列表:

# List of pairs of points
list = []
list.append([(602, 336), (624, 365)])
list.append([(635, 336), (654, 365)])
list.append([(642, 342), (648, 358)])
list.append([(644, 344), (646, 356)])
list.append([(653, 337), (671, 365)])
list.append([(728, 13), (739, 32)])
list.append([(756, 59), (767, 79)])

itens_to_remove = []
itens_to_remove.append([(642, 342), (648, 358)])
itens_to_remove.append([(644, 344), (646, 356)])

print("Initial List Size: ", len(list))

for a in itens_to_remove:
    for b in list:
        if a == b :
            list.remove(b)

print("Final List Size: ", len(list))
from collections import Counter

y = Counter(y)
x = Counter(x)

print(list(x-y))

使用一个列表推导式来计算差值,同时保持x的原始顺序:

[item for item in x if item not in y]

如果你不需要列表属性(例如,排序),使用一个集差异,正如其他答案所建议的:

list(set(x) - set(y))

为了允许x - y中缀语法,在从list继承的类上重写__sub__:

class MyList(list):
    def __init__(self, *args):
        super(MyList, self).__init__(args)

    def __sub__(self, other):
        return self.__class__(*[item for item in self if item not in other])

用法:

x = MyList(1, 2, 3, 4)
y = MyList(2, 5, 2)
z = x - y   
def listsubtraction(parent,child):
    answer=[]
    for element in parent:
        if element not in child:
            answer.append(element)
    return answer

我认为这应该可行。我是初学者,所以请原谅我的错误

在set中查找值比在list中查找值更快:

[item for item in x if item not in set(y)]

我相信这将会比:

[item for item in x if item not in y]

两者都保持了列表的顺序。
