python里的数组何等重要,不用多言,看完下面的代码,一定受益匪浅
#!/usr/bin/env python # # [代码名字: Lists 101] # [代码分类: Python Core] # [代码描述: Basic and not so basic list operations] # [代码作者: Bruno Girin <brunogirin@gmail.com>] # [代码协议: GPL] # This snippet demonstrates how the basics on lists: how to create, add, # remove items, get items or slices, sort, etc. # # First, let's create simple list # print "Create a simple list" simpleList = ["Karmic", "Lucid", "Hardy", "Jaunty", "Intrepid"] # print it print simpleList # # Interrogate the list # print "\nInterrogate the list" # get item 3: lists start counting at 0 so it should be Jaunty print simpleList[3] # we can also get a slice print simpleList[2:4] # get the first three items print simpleList[:3] # or all items from number index 3 (which is the fourth item) to the end print simpleList[3:] # we can also take every other item, as a slice is defined # like this: start:stop:step print simpleList[::2] # get the length of the list print len(simpleList) # we can get the index of an item in the list print simpleList.index("Hardy") # and when the list doesn't contain the item, we get an error that we can catch try: print simpleList.index("Feisty") except ValueError: print "The list doesn't contain the item Feisty" # # Modify the list # print "\nModify the list" # add another item simpleList.append("Twisty") print simpleList # oops! let's sort this out by replacing in place simpleList[5] = "Gutsy" print simpleList # extend the list with another one otherList = ["Edgy", "Breezy"] simpleList.extend(otherList) print simpleList # remove an item from the list (Hardy should not be in the list anymore) del simpleList[2] print simpleList # insert an item in the middle of the list simpleList.insert(4, "Hardy") print simpleList # remove an item by its value rather than its index simpleList.remove("Edgy") print simpleList # # Create modified copies of the list # print "\nCreate modified copies of the list" # sort it print sorted(simpleList) # join it to produce a custom print print ' => '.join(sorted(simpleList)) # lists can contain the same item several times so if we add Lucid again: simpleList.append("Lucid") # we have it twice in the list (easier to see if we sort it) print sorted(simpleList) # but we can get round that by transforming it into a set, which is a list # with no duplicates; and of course we can also sort the set print sorted(set(simpleList)) # # Iterate over the list # print "\nIterate over the list" for i in simpleList: print i.upper() # but if we want to create another list by applying the same expression to # each item, we can use a list comprehension upList = [i.upper() for i in sorted(set(simpleList))] print upList
