key具有唯一性
函数:
>>> items = [('name', 'Gumby'),
('age', 42)]
>>> d = dict(items)
>>> d
{'age': 42, 'name': 'Gumby'}
>>> d['name']
'Gumby'
>>> d = dict(name='Gumby', age=42)
>>> d
{'age': 42, 'name': 'Gumby'}
基本操作:
?
len(d) returns the number of items (key-value pairs) in d.
? d[k] returns the value associated with
the key k.
? d[k] = v associates the value v with the
key k.
?
? k in d checks whether there is an item in
d that has the key k.
key可以为不变的类型。
自动添加
>>>
x = {}
>>> x[42] = 'Foobar'
>>> x
{42: 'Foobar'}
实例:
# A simple database
# A dictionary with person names as keys.
Each person is represented as
# another dictionary with the keys 'phone'
and 'addr' referring to their phone
# number and address, respectively.
people = {
'
'phone': '2341',
'addr': 'Foo drive 23'
},
'Beth': {
'phone': '9102',
'addr': '
},
'Cecil': {
'phone': '3158',
'addr': '
}
}
# Descriptive labels for the phone number
and address. These will be used
# when printing the output.
labels = {
'phone': 'phone number',
'addr': 'address'
}
name = raw_input('Name: ')
# Are we looking for a phone number or an
address?
request = raw_input('Phone number (p) or
address (a)? ')
# Use the correct key:
if request == 'p': key = 'phone'
if request == 'a': key = 'addr'
# Only try to print information if the name
is a valid key in
# our dictionary:
if name in people: print "%s's %s is
%s." % \
(name, labels[key], people[name][key])
运行结果:
Name: Beth
Phone number (p) or address (a)? p
Beth's phone number is 9102.
格式化输出:
>>> phonebook
{'Beth': '9102', '
>>> "Cecil's phone number is
%(Cecil)s." % phonebook
"Cecil's phone number is 3258."
字典方法:
清除:clear
>>> x = {}
>>> y = x
>>> x['key'] = 'value'
>>> y
{'key': 'value'}
>>> x = {}
>>> y
{'key': 'value'}
And here’s the second scenario:
>>> x = {}
>>> y = x
>>> x['key'] = 'value'
>>> y
{'key': 'value'}
>>> x.clear()
>>> y
{}
复制:copy
>>> x = {'username': 'admin',
'machines': ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']}
>>> y = x.copy()
>>> y['username'] = 'mlh'
>>> y['machines'].remove('bar')
>>> y
{'username': 'mlh', 'machines': ['foo',
'baz']}
>>> x
{'username': 'admin', 'machines': ['foo',
'baz']}
>>> from copy import deepcopy
>>> d = {}
>>> d['names'] = ['Alfred',
'Bertrand']
>>> c = d.copy()
>>> dc = deepcopy(d)
>>> d['names'].append('Clive')
>>> c
{'names': ['Alfred', 'Bertrand', 'Clive']}
>>> dc
{'names': ['Alfred', 'Bertrand']}
复制key:fromkeys
>>> {}.fromkeys(['name', 'age'])
{'age': None, 'name': None}
>>> dict.fromkeys(['name', 'age'],
'(unknown)')
{'age': '(unknown)', 'name': '(unknown)'}
获取:
>>> d = {}
>>> print d['name']
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "
KeyError: 'name'
>>> print d.get('name')
None
>>> d.get('name', 'N/A')
'N/A'
是否有key:
列出值:items and
iteritems
列出关键字:keys and
iterkeys
取值:pop
>>> d = {'x': 1, 'y': 2}
>>> d.pop('x')
1
>>> d
{'y': 2}
出栈:popitem
但是没有append。
setdefault:设置默认值。
更新:update
>>> d = {
'title': 'Python Web Site',
'url': '',
'changed': 'Mar 14 22:09:15 MET 2008'
}
>>> x = {'title': 'Python Language
Website'}
>>> d.update(x)
>>> d
{'url': '', 'changed':
'Mar 14 22:09:15 MET 2008', 'title':
'Python Language Website'}
取值:values and itervalues
