使用numpy.add()就很简单了

import numpy

list1 = numpy.array([1, 2, 3])
list2 = numpy.array([4, 5, 6])
result = numpy.add(list1, list2) # result receive element-wise addition of list1 and list2
print(result)
array([5, 7, 9])

如果你想接收一个python列表:

result.tolist()

使用numpy.add()就很简单了

import numpy

list1 = numpy.array([1, 2, 3])
list2 = numpy.array([4, 5, 6])
result = numpy.add(list1, list2) # result receive element-wise addition of list1 and list2
print(result)
array([5, 7, 9])

如果您需要处理不同大小的列表，不用担心!很棒的itertools模块已经介绍过了:

>>> from itertools import zip_longest
>>> list1 = [1,2,1]
>>> list2 = [2,1,2,3]
>>> [sum(x) for x in zip_longest(list1, list2, fillvalue=0)]
[3, 3, 3, 3]
>>>

在Python 2中，zip_longest被称为izip_longest。

参见相关回答，并对另一个问题进行评论。

我还没有计时，但我怀疑这将是相当快的:

import numpy as np
list1=[1, 2, 3]
list2=[4, 5, 6]

list_sum = (np.add(list1, list2)).tolist()

[5, 7, 9]

使用map和operator.add:

>>> from operator import add
>>> list( map(add, list1, list2) )
[5, 7, 9]

或者压缩一个列表理解:

>>> [sum(x) for x in zip(list1, list2)]
[5, 7, 9]

时间比较:

>>> list2 = [4, 5, 6]*10**5
>>> list1 = [1, 2, 3]*10**5
>>> %timeit from operator import add;map(add, list1, list2)
10 loops, best of 3: 44.6 ms per loop
>>> %timeit from itertools import izip; [a + b for a, b in izip(list1, list2)]
10 loops, best of 3: 71 ms per loop
>>> %timeit [a + b for a, b in zip(list1, list2)]
10 loops, best of 3: 112 ms per loop
>>> %timeit from itertools import izip;[sum(x) for x in izip(list1, list2)]
1 loops, best of 3: 139 ms per loop
>>> %timeit [sum(x) for x in zip(list1, list2)]
1 loops, best of 3: 177 ms per loop

[list1[i] + list2[i] for i in range(len(list1))]
