在C/ c++(以及该家族的许多语言)中,根据条件声明和初始化变量的常用习语使用三元条件操作符:

int index = val > 0 ? val : -val

Go没有条件运算符。实现上面同一段代码的最惯用的方法是什么?我想出了下面的解决方案,但它似乎相当啰嗦

var index int

if val > 0 {
    index = val
} else {
    index = -val
}

还有更好的办法吗?


当前回答

假设你有以下三元表达式(C语言):

int a = test ? 1 : 2;

在Go中惯用的方法是简单地使用if块:

var a int

if test {
  a = 1
} else {
  a = 2
}

但是,这可能不符合您的要求。在我的例子中,我需要一个代码生成模板的内联表达式。

我使用了一个立即求值的匿名函数:

a := func() int { if test { return 1 } else { return 2 } }()

这确保了两个分支都不会被计算。

其他回答

没有括号,map三元很容易读:

c := map[bool]int{true: 1, false: 0} [5 > 4]

No Go没有三元运算符。使用if/else语法是惯用的方法。

Why does Go not have the ?: operator? There is no ternary testing operation in Go. You may use the following to achieve the same result: if expr { n = trueVal } else { n = falseVal } The reason ?: is absent from Go is that the language's designers had seen the operation used too often to create impenetrably complex expressions. The if-else form, although longer, is unquestionably clearer. A language needs only one conditional control flow construct. — Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - The Go Programming Language

我已经编译了一些项目并比较了速度。

关于三元运算符的惯用方法,还有一个建议:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
)

func main() {
    val := -5

    index := func (test bool, n, d int) int {
        if test {
            return n
        }
        return d
    }(val > 0, val, -val)
    
    fmt.Println(index)
}

去操场

埃尔德的回答既有趣又有创意,甚至可以说很聪明。

但是,建议改为:

var index int
if val > 0 {
    index = printPositiveAndReturn(val)
} else {
    index = slowlyReturn(-val)  // or slowlyNegate(val)
}

是的,它们都编译成本质上相同的程序集,但是这段代码比调用匿名函数只返回一个可以首先写入变量的值要清晰得多。

基本上,简单清晰的代码比有创意的代码更好。

此外,任何使用map文字的代码都不是一个好主意,因为在Go中映射根本不是轻量级的。自Go 1.3以来,小型地图的随机迭代顺序得到了保证,为了加强这一点,小型地图的内存效率大大降低。

As a result, making and removing numerous small maps is both space-consuming and time-consuming. I had a piece of code that used a small map (two or three keys, are likely, but common use case was only one entry) But the code was dog slow. We're talking at least 3 orders of magnitude slower than the same code rewritten to use a dual slice key[index]=>data[index] map. And likely was more. As some operations that were previously taking a couple of minutes to run, started completing in milliseconds.\
