这是另一个解决方案:

def diff(a, b):
    xa = [i for i in set(a) if i not in b]
    xb = [i for i in set(b) if i not in a]
    return xa + xb

这可能比马克的清单理解还要快:

list(itertools.filterfalse(set(temp2).__contains__, temp1))

由于目前的解决方案都不产生一个元组，我将抛出:

temp3 = tuple(set(temp1) - set(temp2))

另外:

#edited using @Mark Byers idea. If you accept this one as answer, just accept his instead.
temp3 = tuple(x for x in temp1 if x not in set(temp2))

像其他在这个方向上得到答案的非元组一样，它保持了顺序

试试这个:

temp3 = set(temp1) - set(temp2)

我想要一个能够使用两个列表并能做diff in bash所做的事情的东西。因为当你搜索“python diff two lists”时，这个问题首先会弹出，而且不是很具体，所以我会把我想到的贴出来。

使用difflib中的SequenceMather，你可以像diff一样比较两个列表。其他答案都不会告诉你差异发生的位置，但这个答案可以。有些答案只给出了一个方向上的差异。有些元素会重新排序。有些公司不处理副本。但是这个解决方案让你在两个列表之间有了真正的区别:

a = 'A quick fox jumps the lazy dog'.split()
b = 'A quick brown mouse jumps over the dog'.split()

from difflib import SequenceMatcher

for tag, i, j, k, l in SequenceMatcher(None, a, b).get_opcodes():
  if tag == 'equal': print('both have', a[i:j])
  if tag in ('delete', 'replace'): print('  1st has', a[i:j])
  if tag in ('insert', 'replace'): print('  2nd has', b[k:l])

这个输出:

both have ['A', 'quick']
  1st has ['fox']
  2nd has ['brown', 'mouse']
both have ['jumps']
  2nd has ['over']
both have ['the']
  1st has ['lazy']
both have ['dog']

当然，如果您的应用程序做出了与其他答案相同的假设，那么您将从中受益最大。但如果你正在寻找一个真正的差异功能，那么这是唯一的方法。

例如，其他答案都无法处理:

a = [1,2,3,4,5]
b = [5,4,3,2,1]

但这一个有:

  2nd has [5, 4, 3, 2]
both have [1]
  1st has [2, 3, 4, 5]

我更喜欢使用转换到集，然后使用“差分()”函数。完整的代码是:

temp1 = ['One', 'Two', 'Three', 'Four'  ]                   
temp2 = ['One', 'Two']
set1 = set(temp1)
set2 = set(temp2)
set3 = set1.difference(set2)
temp3 = list(set3)
print(temp3)

输出:

>>>print(temp3)
['Three', 'Four']

这是最容易理解的，而且在将来，如果你处理大型数据，将其转换为集合将删除不需要的重复项。希望能有所帮助;-)
