如何在列表列表中查找项目的实例数

Question

我想要我正在编写的脚本的一部分来做这样的事情。

x=0
y=0
list=[["cat","dog","mouse",1],["cat","dog","mouse",2],["cat","dog","mouse",3]]

row=list[y]
item=row[x]
print list.count(item)

问题在于这将打印0，因为它没有搜索单个列表。如何使它返回实​​例总数？

Answer 1

搜索每个子列表 ，使用sum()将每个包含的列表的结果sum() ：

sum(sub.count(item) for sub in lst)

演示：

>>> lst = [["cat","dog","mouse",1],["cat","dog","mouse",2],["cat","dog","mouse",3]]
>>> item = 'cat'
>>> sum(sub.count(item) for sub in lst)
3

Answer 2

sum()是用于添加其参数的内置函数。

x.count(item) for x in list)的x.count(item) for x in list)是一个“生成器表达式”（类似于列表推导）-一种在python中创建和管理列表对象的便捷方法。

item_count = sum(x.count(item) for x in list)

那应该做

Answer 3

使用collections.Counter和itertools.chain.from_iterable ：

>>> from collections import Counter
>>> from itertools import chain
>>> lst = [["cat","dog","mouse",1],["cat","dog","mouse",2],["cat","dog","mouse",3]]
>>> count = Counter(item for item in chain.from_iterable(lst) if not isinstance(item, int))
>>> count
Counter({'mouse': 3, 'dog': 3, 'cat': 3})
>>> count['cat']
3

我过滤掉了int因为我不明白为什么你首先拥有它们。
