我已经阅读了python文档中的示例,但仍然不明白这个方法是什么意思。有人能帮帮我吗?下面是python文档中的两个例子

>>> from collections import defaultdict

>>> s = 'mississippi'
>>> d = defaultdict(int)
>>> for k in s:
...     d[k] += 1
...
>>> d.items()
[('i', 4), ('p', 2), ('s', 4), ('m', 1)]

and

>>> s = [('yellow', 1), ('blue', 2), ('yellow', 3), ('blue', 4), ('red', 1)]
>>> d = defaultdict(list)
>>> for k, v in s:
...     d[k].append(v)
...
>>> d.items()
[('blue', [2, 4]), ('red', [1]), ('yellow', [1, 3])]

参数int和list是干什么用的?

Usually, a Python dictionary throws a KeyError if you try to get an item with a key that is not currently in the dictionary. The defaultdict in contrast will simply create any items that you try to access (provided of course they do not exist yet). To create such a "default" item, it calls the function object that you pass to the constructor (more precisely, it's an arbitrary "callable" object, which includes function and type objects). For the first example, default items are created using int(), which will return the integer object 0. For the second example, default items are created using list(), which returns a new empty list object.

文档和解释几乎是不言自明的:

http://docs.python.org/library/collections.html#collections.defaultdict

类型函数(int/str等)作为参数传递,用于初始化dict中没有的任何给定键的默认值。

我自己的2分:你也可以子类defaultdict:

class MyDict(defaultdict):
    def __missing__(self, key):
        value = [None, None]
        self[key] = value
        return value

这在非常复杂的情况下可以派上用场。

#dictinary and defaultdict

normaldictionary=dict()
print(type(normaldictionary))
#print(normaldictionary["keynotexisit"])
#Above normal dictionary give an error as key not present

from collections import defaultdict
defaultdict1=defaultdict()
print(type(defaultdict1))
#print(defaultdict1['keynotexisit'])
######################################

from collections import defaultdict
default2=defaultdict(int)
print(default2['keynotexist'])

简而言之:

Defaultdict (int) -参数int表示值将是int类型。

Defaultdict (list) -参数列表指示值将是列表类型。
