我有一个大字典对象,它有几个键值对(大约16个),但我只对其中3个感兴趣。将这样的字典子集化的最佳方法(最短/有效/最优雅)是什么?

我知道的最好的是:

bigdict = {'a':1,'b':2,....,'z':26} 
subdict = {'l':bigdict['l'], 'm':bigdict['m'], 'n':bigdict['n']}

我相信有比这更优雅的方式。

解决方案

from operator import itemgetter
from typing import List, Dict, Union


def subdict(d: Union[Dict, List], columns: List[str]) -> Union[Dict, List[Dict]]:
    """Return a dict or list of dicts with subset of 
    columns from the d argument.
    """
    getter = itemgetter(*columns)

    if isinstance(d, list):
        result = []
        for subset in map(getter, d):
            record = dict(zip(columns, subset))
            result.append(record)
        return result
    elif isinstance(d, dict):
        return dict(zip(columns, getter(d)))

    raise ValueError('Unsupported type for `d`')

使用实例

# pure dict

d = dict(a=1, b=2, c=3)
print(subdict(d, ['a', 'c']))

>>> In [5]: {'a': 1, 'c': 3}
# list of dicts

d = [
    dict(a=1, b=2, c=3),
    dict(a=2, b=4, c=6),
    dict(a=4, b=8, c=12),
]

print(subdict(d, ['a', 'c']))

>>> In [5]: [{'a': 1, 'c': 3}, {'a': 2, 'c': 6}, {'a': 4, 'c': 12}]

还有一个问题(我更喜欢Mark Longair的答案)

di = {'a':1,'b':2,'c':3}
req = ['a','c','w']
dict([i for i in di.iteritems() if i[0] in di and i[0] in req])

好吧,这个问题已经困扰过我几次了,谢谢你的提问。

上面的答案似乎是一个很好的解决方案,但如果你在你的代码中使用它,我认为包装功能是有意义的。此外,这里有两个可能的用例:一个是关心是否所有关键字都在原始字典中。还有一个你不知道的地方。如果能对两者一视同仁就好了。

所以,为了我的二分之一的价值,我建议写一个字典的子类,例如。

class my_dict(dict):
    def subdict(self, keywords, fragile=False):
        d = {}
        for k in keywords:
            try:
                d[k] = self[k]
            except KeyError:
                if fragile:
                    raise
        return d

现在您可以使用orig_dict.subdict(关键字)提取子字典

使用例子:

#
## our keywords are letters of the alphabet
keywords = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
#
## our dictionary maps letters to their index
d = my_dict([(k,i) for i,k in enumerate(keywords)])
print('Original dictionary:\n%r\n\n' % (d,))
#
## constructing a sub-dictionary with good keywords
oddkeywords = keywords[::2]
subd = d.subdict(oddkeywords)
print('Dictionary from odd numbered keys:\n%r\n\n' % (subd,))
#
## constructing a sub-dictionary with mixture of good and bad keywords
somebadkeywords = keywords[1::2] + 'A'
try:
    subd2 = d.subdict(somebadkeywords)
    print("We shouldn't see this message")
except KeyError:
    print("subd2 construction fails:")
    print("\toriginal dictionary doesn't contain some keys\n\n")
#
## Trying again with fragile set to false
try:
    subd3 = d.subdict(somebadkeywords, fragile=False)
    print('Dictionary constructed using some bad keys:\n%r\n\n' % (subd3,))
except KeyError:
    print("We shouldn't see this message")

如果你运行上面所有的代码,你应该会看到(类似于)下面的输出(抱歉格式化):

Original dictionary: {'a': 0, 'c': 2, 'b': 1, 'e': 4, 'd': 3, 'g': 6, 'f': 5, 'i': 8, 'h': 7, 'k': 10, 'j': 9, 'm': 12, 'l': 11, 'o': 14, 'n': 13, 'q': 16, 'p': 15, 's': 18, 'r': 17, 'u': 20, 't': 19, 'w': 22, 'v': 21, 'y': 24, 'x': 23, 'z': 25} Dictionary from odd numbered keys: {'a': 0, 'c': 2, 'e': 4, 'g': 6, 'i': 8, 'k': 10, 'm': 12, 'o': 14, 'q': 16, 's': 18, 'u': 20, 'w': 22, 'y': 24} subd2 construction fails: original dictionary doesn't contain some keys Dictionary constructed using some bad keys: {'b': 1, 'd': 3, 'f': 5, 'h': 7, 'j': 9, 'l': 11, 'n': 13, 'p': 15, 'r': 17, 't': 19, 'v': 21, 'x': 23, 'z': 25}

使用地图(halfdanrump的答案)对我来说是最好的,尽管还没有计时……

但是如果你使用一个字典,如果你有一个big_dict:

一定要确保你遍历了要求。这是至关重要的,并且会影响算法的运行时间(大O, theta,你能想到的) 把它写得足够通用,以避免在没有键的情况下出现错误。

例如:

big_dict = {'a':1,'b':2,'c':3,................................................}
req = ['a','c','w']

{k:big_dict.get(k,None) for k in req )
# or 
{k:big_dict[k] for k in req if k in big_dict)

请注意,在相反的情况下,req很大,但my_dict很小,您应该通过my_dict进行循环。

一般来说,我们在做一个交集问题的复杂度是O(min(len(dict)) min(len(req)))Python自己的intersection实现考虑了两个集合的大小,所以它看起来是最优的。而且,作为c语言的核心库的一部分,可能比大多数未优化的python语句要快。 因此,我考虑的解决方案是:

dict = {'a':1,'b':2,'c':3,................................................}
req = ['a','c','w',...................]

{k:dic[k] for k in set(req).intersection(dict.keys())}

它将关键操作移到python的c代码中,并适用于所有情况。

比较一下所有提到的方法的速度:
