10.1. itertools — 创建高效循环迭代器的函数 ¶

此模块实现了许多 iterator 构建块受 APL、Haskell 和 SML 构造所启发。每个被重新铸造成适合 Python 的形式。

此模块标准化了一组快速、内存高效的核心工具，通过它们自身或将它们组合在一起很有用。它们一起形成了 "迭代器代数"，使以纯 Python 简洁且高效地构造专用工具成为可能。

例如，SML 提供的制表工具： tabulate(f) 产生一系列 f(0), f(1), ... 。Python 可以达成相同效果通过组合 map() and count() 以形成 map(f, count()) .

These tools and their built-in counterparts also work well with the high-speed functions in the operator module. For example, the multiplication operator can be mapped across two vectors to form an efficient dot-product: sum(map(operator.mul, vector1, vector2)) .

Infinite Iterators:

迭代器	自变量	结果	范例
count()	start, [step]	start, start+step, start+2*step, ...	count(10) --> 10 11 12 13 14 ...
cycle()	p	p0, p1, ... plast, p0, p1, ...	cycle('ABCD') --> A B C D A B C D ...
repeat()	elem [,n]	elem, elem, elem, ... endlessly or up to n times	repeat(10, 3) --> 10 10 10

Iterators terminating on the shortest input sequence:

迭代器	自变量	结果	范例
accumulate()	p [,func]	p0, p0+p1, p0+p1+p2, ...	accumulate([1,2,3,4,5]) --> 1 3 6 10 15
chain()	p, q, ...	p0, p1, ... plast, q0, q1, ...	chain('ABC', 'DEF') --> A B C D E F
chain.from_iterable()	iterable	p0, p1, ... plast, q0, q1, ...	chain.from_iterable(['ABC', 'DEF']) --> A B C D E F
compress()	data, selectors	(d[0] if s[0]), (d[1] if s[1]), ...	compress('ABCDEF', [1,0,1,0,1,1]) --> A C E F
dropwhile()	pred, seq	seq[n], seq[n+1], starting when pred fails	dropwhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,4,1]) --> 6 4 1
filterfalse()	pred, seq	elements of seq where pred(elem) is false	filterfalse(lambda x: x%2, range(10)) --> 0 2 4 6 8
groupby()	iterable[, keyfunc]	sub-iterators grouped by value of keyfunc(v)
islice()	seq, [start,] stop [, step]	elements from seq[start:stop:step]	islice('ABCDEFG', 2, None) --> C D E F G
starmap()	func, seq	func(*seq[0]), func(*seq[1]), ...	starmap(pow, [(2,5), (3,2), (10,3)]) --> 32 9 1000
takewhile()	pred, seq	seq[0], seq[1], until pred fails	takewhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,4,1]) --> 1 4
tee()	it, n	it1, it2, ... itn splits one iterator into n
zip_longest()	p, q, ...	(p[0], q[0]), (p[1], q[1]), ...	zip_longest('ABCD', 'xy', fillvalue='-') --> Ax By C- D-

Combinatoric generators:

迭代器	自变量	结果
product()	p, q, ... [repeat=1]	cartesian product, equivalent to a nested for-loop
permutations()	p[, r]	r-length tuples, all possible orderings, no repeated elements
combinations()	p, r	r-length tuples, in sorted order, no repeated elements
combinations_with_replacement()	p, r	r-length tuples, in sorted order, with repeated elements
product('ABCD', repeat=2)		AA AB AC AD BA BB BC BD CA CB CC CD DA DB DC DD
permutations('ABCD', 2)		AB AC AD BA BC BD CA CB CD DA DB DC

10.1.1. Itertool functions ¶

The following module functions all construct and return iterators. Some provide streams of infinite length, so they should only be accessed by functions or loops that truncate the stream.

itertools. accumulate ( iterable [ , func ] ) ¶

Make an iterator that returns accumulated sums. Elements may be any addable type including Decimal or Fraction . If the optional func argument is supplied, it should be a function of two arguments and it will be used instead of addition.

等效于：

def accumulate(iterable, func=operator.add):
    'Return running totals'
    # accumulate([1,2,3,4,5]) --> 1 3 6 10 15
    # accumulate([1,2,3,4,5], operator.mul) --> 1 2 6 24 120
    it = iter(iterable)
    total = next(it)
    yield total
    for element in it:
        total = func(total, element)
        yield total
						

There are a number of uses for the func argument. It can be set to min() for a running minimum, max() for a running maximum, or operator.mul() for a running product. Amortization tables can be built by accumulating interest and applying payments. First-order 递归关系 can be modeled by supplying the initial value in the iterable and using only the accumulated total in func 自变量：

>>> data = [3, 4, 6, 2, 1, 9, 0, 7, 5, 8]
>>> list(accumulate(data, operator.mul))     # running product
[3, 12, 72, 144, 144, 1296, 0, 0, 0, 0]
>>> list(accumulate(data, max))              # running maximum
[3, 4, 6, 6, 6, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9]
# Amortize a 5% loan of 1000 with 4 annual payments of 90
>>> cashflows = [1000, -90, -90, -90, -90]
>>> list(accumulate(cashflows, lambda bal, pmt: bal*1.05 + pmt))
[1000, 960.0, 918.0, 873.9000000000001, 827.5950000000001]
# Chaotic recurrence relation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map
>>> logistic_map = lambda x, _:  r * x * (1 - x)
>>> r = 3.8
>>> x0 = 0.4
>>> inputs = repeat(x0, 36)     # only the initial value is used
>>> [format(x, '.2f') for x in accumulate(inputs, logistic_map)]
['0.40', '0.91', '0.30', '0.81', '0.60', '0.92', '0.29', '0.79', '0.63',
 '0.88', '0.39', '0.90', '0.33', '0.84', '0.52', '0.95', '0.18', '0.57',
 '0.93', '0.25', '0.71', '0.79', '0.63', '0.88', '0.39', '0.91', '0.32',
 '0.83', '0.54', '0.95', '0.20', '0.60', '0.91', '0.30', '0.80', '0.60']
						

见 functools.reduce() for a similar function that returns only the final accumulated value.

3.3 版改变： 添加可选 func 参数。

itertools. chain ( *iterables ) ¶

Make an iterator that returns elements from the first iterable until it is exhausted, then proceeds to the next iterable, until all of the iterables are exhausted. Used for treating consecutive sequences as a single sequence. Equivalent to:

def chain(*iterables):
    # chain('ABC', 'DEF') --> A B C D E F
    for it in iterables:
        for element in it:
            yield element
						

classmethod chain. from_iterable ( iterable ) ¶

替代构造函数对于 chain() . Gets chained inputs from a single iterable argument that is evaluated lazily. Roughly equivalent to:

def from_iterable(iterables):
    # chain.from_iterable(['ABC', 'DEF']) --> A B C D E F
    for it in iterables:
        for element in it:
            yield element
						

itertools. combinations ( iterable , r ) ¶

返回 r length subsequences of elements from the input iterable .

Combinations are emitted in lexicographic sort order. So, if the input iterable is sorted, the combination tuples will be produced in sorted order.

Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on their value. So if the input elements are unique, there will be no repeat values in each combination.

等效于：

def combinations(iterable, r):
    # combinations('ABCD', 2) --> AB AC AD BC BD CD
    # combinations(range(4), 3) --> 012 013 023 123
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    if r > n:
        return
    indices = list(range(r))
    yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
    while True:
        for i in reversed(range(r)):
            if indices[i] != i + n - r:
                break
        else:
            return
        indices[i] += 1
        for j in range(i+1, r):
            indices[j] = indices[j-1] + 1
        yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
						

The code for combinations() can be also expressed as a subsequence of permutations() after filtering entries where the elements are not in sorted order (according to their position in the input pool):

def combinations(iterable, r):
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    for indices in permutations(range(n), r):
        if sorted(indices) == list(indices):
            yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
						

返回的项数为 n! / r! / (n-r)! 当 0 <= r <= n 或 0 当 r > n .

itertools. combinations_with_replacement ( iterable , r ) ¶

返回 r length subsequences of elements from the input iterable allowing individual elements to be repeated more than once.

Combinations are emitted in lexicographic sort order. So, if the input iterable is sorted, the combination tuples will be produced in sorted order.

Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on their value. So if the input elements are unique, the generated combinations will also be unique.

等效于：

def combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r):
    # combinations_with_replacement('ABC', 2) --> AA AB AC BB BC CC
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    if not n and r:
        return
    indices = [0] * r
    yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
    while True:
        for i in reversed(range(r)):
            if indices[i] != n - 1:
                break
        else:
            return
        indices[i:] = [indices[i] + 1] * (r - i)
        yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
						

The code for combinations_with_replacement() can be also expressed as a subsequence of product() after filtering entries where the elements are not in sorted order (according to their position in the input pool):

def combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r):
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    for indices in product(range(n), repeat=r):
        if sorted(indices) == list(indices):
            yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
						

返回的项数为 (n+r-1)! / r! / (n-1)! 当 n > 0 .

itertools. compress ( data , selectors ) ¶

Make an iterator that filters elements from data returning only those that have a corresponding element in selectors that evaluates to True . Stops when either the data or selectors iterables has been exhausted. Equivalent to:

def compress(data, selectors):
    # compress('ABCDEF', [1,0,1,0,1,1]) --> A C E F
    return (d for d, s in zip(data, selectors) if s)
						

3.1 版新增。

itertools. count ( start=0 , step=1 ) ¶

Make an iterator that returns evenly spaced values starting with number start . Often used as an argument to map() to generate consecutive data points. Also, used with zip() to add sequence numbers. Equivalent to:

def count(start=0, step=1):
    # count(10) --> 10 11 12 13 14 ...
    # count(2.5, 0.5) -> 2.5 3.0 3.5 ...
    n = start
    while True:
        yield n
        n += step
						

When counting with floating point numbers, better accuracy can sometimes be achieved by substituting multiplicative code such as: (start + step * i for i in count()) .

3.1 版改变： 添加 step 自变量且允许非整数自变量。

itertools. cycle ( iterable ) ¶

Make an iterator returning elements from the iterable and saving a copy of each. When the iterable is exhausted, return elements from the saved copy. Repeats indefinitely. Equivalent to:

def cycle(iterable):
    # cycle('ABCD') --> A B C D A B C D A B C D ...
    saved = []
    for element in iterable:
        yield element
        saved.append(element)
    while saved:
        for element in saved:
              yield element
						

Note, this member of the toolkit may require significant auxiliary storage (depending on the length of the iterable).

itertools. dropwhile ( predicate , iterable ) ¶

Make an iterator that drops elements from the iterable as long as the predicate is true; afterwards, returns every element. Note, the iterator does not produce any output until the predicate first becomes false, so it may have a lengthy start-up time. Equivalent to:

def dropwhile(predicate, iterable):
    # dropwhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,4,1]) --> 6 4 1
    iterable = iter(iterable)
    for x in iterable:
        if not predicate(x):
            yield x
            break
    for x in iterable:
        yield x
						

itertools. filterfalse ( predicate , iterable ) ¶

Make an iterator that filters elements from iterable returning only those for which the predicate is False 。若 predicate is None , return the items that are false. Equivalent to:

def filterfalse(predicate, iterable):
    # filterfalse(lambda x: x%2, range(10)) --> 0 2 4 6 8
    if predicate is None:
        predicate = bool
    for x in iterable:
        if not predicate(x):
            yield x
						

itertools. groupby ( iterable , key=None ) ¶

Make an iterator that returns consecutive keys and groups from the iterable 。 key is a function computing a key value for each element. If not specified or is None , key defaults to an identity function and returns the element unchanged. Generally, the iterable needs to already be sorted on the same key function.

The operation of groupby() is similar to the uniq filter in Unix. It generates a break or new group every time the value of the key function changes (which is why it is usually necessary to have sorted the data using the same key function). That behavior differs from SQL’s GROUP BY which aggregates common elements regardless of their input order.

The returned group is itself an iterator that shares the underlying iterable with groupby() . Because the source is shared, when the groupby() object is advanced, the previous group is no longer visible. So, if that data is needed later, it should be stored as a list:

groups = []
uniquekeys = []
data = sorted(data, key=keyfunc)
for k, g in groupby(data, keyfunc):
    groups.append(list(g))      # Store group iterator as a list
    uniquekeys.append(k)
						

groupby() 相当于：

class groupby:
    # [k for k, g in groupby('AAAABBBCCDAABBB')] --> A B C D A B
    # [list(g) for k, g in groupby('AAAABBBCCD')] --> AAAA BBB CC D
    def __init__(self, iterable, key=None):
        if key is None:
            key = lambda x: x
        self.keyfunc = key
        self.it = iter(iterable)
        self.tgtkey = self.currkey = self.currvalue = object()
    def __iter__(self):
        return self
    def __next__(self):
        while self.currkey == self.tgtkey:
            self.currvalue = next(self.it)    # Exit on StopIteration
            self.currkey = self.keyfunc(self.currvalue)
        self.tgtkey = self.currkey
        return (self.currkey, self._grouper(self.tgtkey))
    def _grouper(self, tgtkey):
        while self.currkey == tgtkey:
            yield self.currvalue
            self.currvalue = next(self.it)    # Exit on StopIteration
            self.currkey = self.keyfunc(self.currvalue)
						

itertools. islice ( iterable , stop ) ¶

itertools. islice ( iterable , start , stop [ , step ] )

Make an iterator that returns selected elements from the iterable. If start is non-zero, then elements from the iterable are skipped until start is reached. Afterward, elements are returned consecutively unless step is set higher than one which results in items being skipped. If stop is None , then iteration continues until the iterator is exhausted, if at all; otherwise, it stops at the specified position. Unlike regular slicing, islice() does not support negative values for start , stop ，或 step . Can be used to extract related fields from data where the internal structure has been flattened (for example, a multi-line report may list a name field on every third line). Equivalent to:

def islice(iterable, *args):
    # islice('ABCDEFG', 2) --> A B
    # islice('ABCDEFG', 2, 4) --> C D
    # islice('ABCDEFG', 2, None) --> C D E F G
    # islice('ABCDEFG', 0, None, 2) --> A C E G
    s = slice(*args)
    it = iter(range(s.start or 0, s.stop or sys.maxsize, s.step or 1))
    nexti = next(it)
    for i, element in enumerate(iterable):
        if i == nexti:
            yield element
            nexti = next(it)
						

若 start is None ，那么迭代从 0 开始。若 step is None ，那么 step 默认为 1。

itertools. permutations ( iterable , r=None ) ¶

依次返回 r length permutations of elements in the iterable .

若 r 未指定或是 None ，那么 r defaults to the length of the iterable and all possible full-length permutations are generated.

Permutations are emitted in lexicographic sort order. So, if the input iterable is sorted, the permutation tuples will be produced in sorted order.

Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on their value. So if the input elements are unique, there will be no repeat values in each permutation.

等效于：

def permutations(iterable, r=None):
    # permutations('ABCD', 2) --> AB AC AD BA BC BD CA CB CD DA DB DC
    # permutations(range(3)) --> 012 021 102 120 201 210
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    r = n if r is None else r
    if r > n:
        return
    indices = list(range(n))
    cycles = list(range(n, n-r, -1))
    yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])
    while n:
        for i in reversed(range(r)):
            cycles[i] -= 1
            if cycles[i] == 0:
                indices[i:] = indices[i+1:] + indices[i:i+1]
                cycles[i] = n - i
            else:
                j = cycles[i]
                indices[i], indices[-j] = indices[-j], indices[i]
                yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])
                break
        else:
            return
						

The code for permutations() can be also expressed as a subsequence of product() , filtered to exclude entries with repeated elements (those from the same position in the input pool):

def permutations(iterable, r=None):
    pool = tuple(iterable)
    n = len(pool)
    r = n if r is None else r
    for indices in product(range(n), repeat=r):
        if len(set(indices)) == r:
            yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
						

返回的项数为 n! / (n-r)! 当 0 <= r <= n 或 0 当 r > n .

itertools. product ( *iterables , repeat=1 ) ¶

Cartesian product of input iterables.

Equivalent to nested for-loops in a generator expression. For example, product(A, B) returns the same as ((x,y) for x in A for y in B) .

The nested loops cycle like an odometer with the rightmost element advancing on every iteration. This pattern creates a lexicographic ordering so that if the input’s iterables are sorted, the product tuples are emitted in sorted order.

To compute the product of an iterable with itself, specify the number of repetitions with the optional repeat keyword argument. For example, product(A, repeat=4) means the same as product(A, A, A, A) .

This function is equivalent to the following code, except that the actual implementation does not build up intermediate results in memory:

def product(*args, repeat=1):
    # product('ABCD', 'xy') --> Ax Ay Bx By Cx Cy Dx Dy
    # product(range(2), repeat=3) --> 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111
    pools = [tuple(pool) for pool in args] * repeat
    result = [[]]
    for pool in pools:
        result = [x+[y] for x in result for y in pool]
    for prod in result:
        yield tuple(prod)
						

itertools. repeat ( object [ , times ] ) ¶

Make an iterator that returns object over and over again. Runs indefinitely unless the times argument is specified. Used as argument to map() for invariant parameters to the called function. Also used with zip() to create an invariant part of a tuple record. Equivalent to:

def repeat(object, times=None):
    # repeat(10, 3) --> 10 10 10
    if times is None:
        while True:
            yield object
    else:
        for i in range(times):
            yield object
						

A common use for repeat is to supply a stream of constant values to map or zip :

>>> list(map(pow, range(10), repeat(2)))
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
						

itertools. starmap ( function , iterable ) ¶

Make an iterator that computes the function using arguments obtained from the iterable. Used instead of map() when argument parameters are already grouped in tuples from a single iterable (the data has been “pre-zipped”). The difference between map() and starmap() parallels the distinction between function(a,b) and function(*c) 。相当于：

def starmap(function, iterable):
    # starmap(pow, [(2,5), (3,2), (10,3)]) --> 32 9 1000
    for args in iterable:
        yield function(*args)
						

itertools. takewhile ( predicate , iterable ) ¶

Make an iterator that returns elements from the iterable as long as the predicate is true. Equivalent to:

def takewhile(predicate, iterable):
    # takewhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,4,1]) --> 1 4
    for x in iterable:
        if predicate(x):
            yield x
        else:
            break
						

itertools. tee ( iterable , n=2 ) ¶

返回 n independent iterators from a single iterable. Equivalent to:

def tee(iterable, n=2):
    it = iter(iterable)
    deques = [collections.deque() for i in range(n)]
    def gen(mydeque):
        while True:
            if not mydeque:             # when the local deque is empty
                newval = next(it)       # fetch a new value and
                for d in deques:        # load it to all the deques
                    d.append(newval)
            yield mydeque.popleft()
    return tuple(gen(d) for d in deques)
						

一旦 tee() has made a split, the original iterable should not be used anywhere else; otherwise, the iterable could get advanced without the tee objects being informed.

This itertool may require significant auxiliary storage (depending on how much temporary data needs to be stored). In general, if one iterator uses most or all of the data before another iterator starts, it is faster to use list() 而不是 tee() .

itertools. zip_longest ( *iterables , fillvalue=None ) ¶

Make an iterator that aggregates elements from each of the iterables. If the iterables are of uneven length, missing values are filled-in with fillvalue . Iteration continues until the longest iterable is exhausted. Equivalent to:

class ZipExhausted(Exception):
    pass
def zip_longest(*args, **kwds):
    # zip_longest('ABCD', 'xy', fillvalue='-') --> Ax By C- D-
    fillvalue = kwds.get('fillvalue')
    counter = len(args) - 1
    def sentinel():
        nonlocal counter
        if not counter:
            raise ZipExhausted
        counter -= 1
        yield fillvalue
    fillers = repeat(fillvalue)
    iterators = [chain(it, sentinel(), fillers) for it in args]
    try:
        while iterators:
            yield tuple(map(next, iterators))
    except ZipExhausted:
        pass
						

If one of the iterables is potentially infinite, then the zip_longest() function should be wrapped with something that limits the number of calls (for example islice() or takewhile() ). If not specified, fillvalue 默认为 None .

10.1.2. Itertools Recipes ¶

This section shows recipes for creating an extended toolset using the existing itertools as building blocks.

The extended tools offer the same high performance as the underlying toolset. The superior memory performance is kept by processing elements one at a time rather than bringing the whole iterable into memory all at once. Code volume is kept small by linking the tools together in a functional style which helps eliminate temporary variables. High speed is retained by preferring “vectorized” building blocks over the use of for-loops and generator s which incur interpreter overhead.

def take(n, iterable):
    "Return first n items of the iterable as a list"
    return list(islice(iterable, n))

Note, many of the above recipes can be optimized by replacing global lookups with local variables defined as default values. For example, the dotproduct recipe can be written as:

def dotproduct(vec1, vec2, sum=sum, map=map, mul=operator.mul):
    return sum(map(mul, vec1, vec2))
