我想从列表中删除一个值,如果它存在于列表中(它可能不存在)。

a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
b = a.index(6)

del a[b]
print(a)

上面给出了错误:

ValueError: list.index(x): x not in list

所以我必须这样做:

a = [1, 2, 3, 4]

try:
    b = a.index(6)
    del a[b]
except:
    pass

print(a)

难道没有更简单的方法吗?


当前回答

arr = [1, 1, 3, 4, 5, 2, 4, 3]

# to remove first occurence of that element, suppose 3 in this example
arr.remove(3)

# to remove all occurences of that element, again suppose 3
# use something called list comprehension
new_arr = [element for element in arr if element!=3]

# if you want to delete a position use "pop" function, suppose 
# position 4 
# the pop function also returns a value
removed_element = arr.pop(4)

# u can also use "del" to delete a position
del arr[4]

一些最简单的基准测试方法:

import random
from copy import copy
sample = random.sample(range(100000), 10000)
remove = random.sample(range(100000), 1000)

%%timeit
sample1 = copy(sample)
remove1 = copy(remove)

for i in reversed(sample1):
    if i in remove1:
        sample1.remove(i)
# 271 ms ± 16 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
# remove all instances

%%timeit
sample1 = copy(sample)
remove1 = copy(remove)

filtered = list(filter(lambda x: x not in remove1, sample1))
# 280 ms ± 18.9 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
# remove all instances

%%timeit
sample1 = copy(sample)
remove1 = copy(remove) 

filtered = [ele for ele in sample1 if ele not in remove1]
# 293 ms ± 72.1 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
# remove all instances

%%timeit
sample1 = copy(sample)
remove1 = copy(remove) 

for val in remove1:
    if val in sample1:
        sample1.remove(val)
# 558 ms ± 40.7 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
# only remove first occurrence

%%timeit
sample1 = copy(sample)
remove1 = copy(remove) 

for val in remove1:
    try:
        sample1.remove(val)
    except:
        pass
# 609 ms ± 11.7 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
# only remove first occurrence

通常,如果你告诉Python做一些它不能做的事情,Python会抛出一个异常,所以你必须这样做:

if c in a:
    a.remove(c)

or:

try:
    a.remove(c)
except ValueError:
    pass

异常不一定是坏事,只要它是您所期望的并正确处理的。

另一种可能是使用set而不是list,如果set适用于您的应用程序。

IE中如果你的数据不是有序的,并且没有副本,那么

my_set=set([3,4,2])
my_set.discard(1)

是没有错误的。

通常,列表只是一个方便的容器,用于存放实际上是无序的项目。有些问题询问如何从列表中删除一个元素的所有出现。如果你一开始就不想被骗,一套也很方便。

my_set.add(3)

不改变上面的my_set。

这个例子是快速的,并且会从列表中删除一个值的所有实例:

a = [1,2,3,1,2,3,4]
while True:
    try:
        a.remove(3)
    except:
        break
print a
>>> [1, 2, 1, 2, 4]

这是一个效率较低的解决方案,但它仍然有效:

A =[] //这是你的列表

B //需要删除的元素

counter = a.count(b)

while counter > 0:
    if b in a:
       a.remove(b)
       counter -= 1

print(a)
