here is a scenario, I am checking if elements of A are present in B. while this code works, it takes a lot of time when I read through million of lines. The efficient way would be to make each list in A and B as dictionary and look if they are present in each other. But I am not able to think of a simple way to do dictionary lookup. That is for each key-value pair in dict A, I want to check if that key-value pair is present in dictB
A = [['A',[1,2,3]],['D',[3,4]],['E',[6,7]]]
B= [['A',[1,2,3]],['E',[6,7]],['F',[8,9]]]
count = 0
for line in A:
if len(line[1]) > 1:
if line in B:
count = count + 1
print count
Example:
A = [['A',[1,2,3]],['D',[3,4]],['E',[6,7]]]
B = [['A',[1,2,3]],['E',[6,7]],['F',[8,9]]]
A_set = set((a, tuple(b)) for a, b in A)
B_set = set((a, tuple(b)) for a, b in B)
print len(A_set & B_set)
You could always try with a list comprehension and work your way up using this as a basis:
a = [[1], [5], [7]]
b = [[5], [7], [0]]
r = [x for x in a if x in b]
Make A
and B
into dictionaries:
dA = dict(A)
dB = dict(B)
Then, just check that the keys and values match:
count = 0
for k,v in dA.iteritems():
if dB.get(k) == v:
count += 1
You will need to do some pre-processing on B, so it's elements are immutable.
def deep_tuple(x):
if type(x) in [type(()), type([])]:
return tuple(map(deep_tuple,x))
return x
A = ['A',[1,2,3]],['D',[3,4]],['E',[6,7]]
B = ['A',[1,2,3]],['E',[6,7]],['F',[8,9]]]
B = set(deep_tuple(B))
count = 0
for line in A:
if len(line[1]) > 1:
if line in B:
count = count + 1
print count
Make B into a set. Lookup in a set is O(1), as compared to O(|B|) otherwise. The overall complexity of this operation will be proportional to O(|A|).
