如何在列表中找到最大值的所有位置?

问题:如何在列表中找到最大值的所有位置?

我有一个清单:

a = [32, 37, 28, 30, 37, 25, 27, 24, 35, 55, 23, 31, 55, 21, 40, 18, 50,
             35, 41, 49, 37, 19, 40, 41, 31]

最大元素为55(位置9和12上的两个元素)

我需要找到最大值位于哪个位置。请帮忙。

I have a list:

a = [32, 37, 28, 30, 37, 25, 27, 24, 35, 55, 23, 31, 55, 21, 40, 18, 50,
             35, 41, 49, 37, 19, 40, 41, 31]

max element is 55 (two elements on position 9 and 12)

I need to find on which position(s) the maximum value is situated. Please, help.

>>> m = max(a)
>>> [i for i, j in enumerate(a) if j == m]
[9, 12]
>>> m = max(a)
>>> [i for i, j in enumerate(a) if j == m]
[9, 12]

回答 1

a.index(max(a))

会告诉您list的最大值元素的第一个实例的索引a

a.index(max(a))

will tell you the index of the first instance of the largest valued element of list a.

所选答案(以及大多数其他答案)需要至少两次通过列表。
这是一站式解决方案,对于较长的列表而言可能是更好的选择。

编辑:解决@John Machin指出的两个缺陷。对于(2),我尝试根据各种条件的估计发生概率和前辈的推论来优化测试。找出适当的初始化值max_valmax_indices在所有可能的情况下都可行,这有点棘手,特别是如果max恰好是列表中的第一个值-但我相信现在可以了。

def maxelements(seq):
    ''' Return list of position(s) of largest element '''
    max_indices = []
    if seq:
        max_val = seq[0]
        for i,val in ((i,val) for i,val in enumerate(seq) if val >= max_val):
            if val == max_val:
                max_indices.append(i)
            else:
                max_val = val
                max_indices = [i]

    return max_indices

The chosen answer (and most others) require at least two passes through the list.
Here’s a one pass solution which might be a better choice for longer lists.

Edited: To address the two deficiencies pointed out by @John Machin. For (2) I attempted to optimize the tests based on guesstimated probability of occurrence of each condition and inferences allowed from predecessors. It was a little tricky figuring out the proper initialization values for max_val and max_indices which worked for all possible cases, especially if the max happened to be the first value in the list — but I believe it now does.

def maxelements(seq):
    ''' Return list of position(s) of largest element '''
    max_indices = []
    if seq:
        max_val = seq[0]
        for i,val in ((i,val) for i,val in enumerate(seq) if val >= max_val):
            if val == max_val:
                max_indices.append(i)
            else:
                max_val = val
                max_indices = [i]

    return max_indices

回答 3

我想出了以下内容,您可以通过看到它maxmin以及其他类似列表中的功能:

因此,请考虑下一个示例列表,以找出最大值在列表中的位置a

>>> a = [3,2,1, 4,5]

使用生成器 enumerate铸造

>>> list(enumerate(a))
[(0, 3), (1, 2), (2, 1), (3, 4), (4, 5)]

在这一点上,我们可以提取的位置最大值

>>> max(enumerate(a), key=(lambda x: x[1]))
(4, 5)

上面告诉我们,最大值位于位置4,其值为5。

如您所见,在自key变量中,可以通过定义适当的lambda来找到任何可迭代对象的最大值。

我希望它能有所作为。

PD:@PaulOyster在评论中指出。随着Python 3.xminmax允许新的关键字default是避免引发异常ValueError时的说法是空列表。max(enumerate(list), key=(lambda x:x[1]), default = -1)

I came up with the following and it works as you can see with max, min and others functions over lists like these:

So, please consider the next example list find out the position of the maximum in the list a:

>>> a = [3,2,1, 4,5]

Using the generator enumerate and making a casting

>>> list(enumerate(a))
[(0, 3), (1, 2), (2, 1), (3, 4), (4, 5)]

At this point, we can extract the position of max with

>>> max(enumerate(a), key=(lambda x: x[1]))
(4, 5)

The above tells us, the maximum is in the position 4 and his value is 5.

As you see, in the key argument, you can find the maximum over any iterable object by defining a lambda appropriate.

I hope that it contributes.

PD: As @PaulOyster noted in a comment. With Python 3.x the min and max allow a new keyword default that avoid the raise exception ValueError when argument is empty list. max(enumerate(list), key=(lambda x:x[1]), default = -1)

回答 6

您还可以使用numpy软件包:

import numpy as np
A = np.array(a)
maximum_indices = np.where(A==max(a))

这将返回一个包含最大值的所有索引的numpy数组

如果要将其转到列表:

maximum_indices_list = maximum_indices.tolist()

You can also use the numpy package:

import numpy as np
A = np.array(a)
maximum_indices = np.where(A==max(a))

This will return an numpy array of all the indices that contain the max value

if you want to turn this to a list:

maximum_indices_list = maximum_indices.tolist()

>>> max(enumerate([1,2,3,32,1,5,7,9]),key=lambda x: x[1])

也可以通过使用以下方法来实现给出第一个外观的解决方案numpy

@shash在其他地方回答了这个问题

查找最大列表元素索引的Python方法是

position = max(enumerate(a), key=lambda x: x[1])[0]

一个通过。但是,它比@Silent_Ghost和@nmichaels的解决方案要慢:

for i in s m j n; do echo $i;  python -mtimeit -s"import maxelements as me" "me.maxelements_${i}(me.a)"; done
s
100000 loops, best of 3: 3.13 usec per loop
m
100000 loops, best of 3: 4.99 usec per loop
j
100000 loops, best of 3: 3.71 usec per loop
n
1000000 loops, best of 3: 1.31 usec per loop

@shash answered this elsewhere

A Pythonic way to find the index of the maximum list element would be

position = max(enumerate(a), key=lambda x: x[1])[0]

Which does one pass. Yet, it is slower than the solution by @Silent_Ghost and, even more so, @nmichaels:

for i in s m j n; do echo $i;  python -mtimeit -s"import maxelements as me" "me.maxelements_${i}(me.a)"; done
s
100000 loops, best of 3: 3.13 usec per loop

这是最大值及其出现的索引:

>>> from collections import defaultdict
>>> d = defaultdict(list)
>>> a = [32, 37, 28, 30, 37, 25, 27, 24, 35, 55, 23, 31, 55, 21, 40, 18, 50, 35, 41, 49, 37, 19, 40, 41, 31]
>>> for i, x in enumerate(a):
...     d[x].append(i)
... 
>>> k = max(d.keys())
>>> print k, d[k]
55 [9, 12]

后来:对于@SilentGhost感到满意

>>> from itertools import takewhile
>>> import heapq
>>> 
>>> def popper(heap):
...     while heap:
...         yield heapq.heappop(heap)
... 
>>> a = [32, 37, 28, 30, 37, 25, 27, 24, 35, 55, 23, 31, 55, 21, 40, 18, 50, 35, 41, 49, 37, 19, 40, 41, 31]
>>> h = [(-x, i) for i, x in enumerate(a)]
>>> heapq.heapify(h)
>>> 
>>> largest = heapq.heappop(h)
>>> indexes = [largest[1]] + [x[1] for x in takewhile(lambda large: large[0] == largest[0], popper(h))]
>>> print -largest[0], indexes
55 [9, 12]

Here is the max value and the indexes it appears at:

>>> from collections import defaultdict
>>> d = defaultdict(list)
>>> a = [32, 37, 28, 30, 37, 25, 27, 24, 35, 55, 23, 31, 55, 21, 40, 18, 50, 35, 41, 49, 37, 19, 40, 41, 31]
>>> for i, x in enumerate(a):
...     d[x].append(i)
... 
>>> k = max(d.keys())
>>> print k, d[k]

列表理解但没有列举的类似想法

m = max(a)
[i for i in range(len(a)) if a[i] == m]

Similar idea with a list comprehension but without enumerate

m = max(a)
[i for i in range(len(a)) if a[i] == m]

仅一行:

如果要n在名为的列表中获取最大数字的索引,则data可以使用Pandas sort_values

pd.Series(data).sort_values(ascending=False).index[0:n]

If you want to get the indices of the largest n numbers in a list called data, you can use Pandas sort_values:

pd.Series(data).sort_values(ascending=False).index[0:n]

这段代码不像之前发布的答案那样复杂,但可以运行:

m = max(a)
n = 0    # frequency of max (a)
for number in a :
    if number == m :
        n = n + 1
ilist = [None] * n  # a list containing index values of maximum number in list a.
ilistindex = 0
aindex = 0  # required index value.    
for number in a :
    if number == m :
        ilist[ilistindex] = aindex
        ilistindex = ilistindex + 1
    aindex = aindex + 1

print ilist

上面的代码中的ilist将包含列表中最大数量的所有位置。

This code is not as sophisticated as the answers posted earlier but it will work:

m = max(a)
n = 0    # frequency of max (a)
for number in a :
    if number == m :
        n = n + 1
ilist = [None] * n  # a list containing index values of maximum number in list a.
ilistindex = 0
aindex = 0  # required index value.    
for number in a :
    if number == m :
        ilist[ilistindex] = aindex
        ilistindex = ilistindex + 1
    aindex = aindex + 1

print ilist

ilist in the above code would contain all the positions of the maximum number in the list.

您可以通过多种方式进行操作。

传统的旧方法是

maxIndexList = list() #this list will store indices of maximum values
maximumValue = max(a) #get maximum value of the list
length = len(a)       #calculate length of the array

for i in range(length): #loop through 0 to length-1 (because, 0 based indexing)
    if a[i]==maximumValue: #if any value of list a is equal to maximum value then store its index to maxIndexList
        maxIndexList.append(i)

print(maxIndexList) #finally print the list

不计算列表长度并将最大值存储到任何变量的另一种方法,

maxIndexList = list()
index = 0 #variable to store index
for i in a: #iterate through the list (actually iterating through the value of list, not index )
    if i==max(a): #max(a) returns a maximum value of list.
        maxIndexList.append(index) #store the index of maximum value
index = index+1 #increment the index

print(maxIndexList)

我们可以用Pythonic和聪明的方式做到这一点!仅使用一行列表就能理解列表

maxIndexList = [i for i,j in enumerate(a) if j==max(a)] #here,i=index and j = value of that index

我所有的代码都在Python 3中。

You can do it in various ways.

The old conventional way is,

maxIndexList = list() #this list will store indices of maximum values
maximumValue = max(a) #get maximum value of the list
length = len(a)       #calculate length of the array

for i in range(length): #loop through 0 to length-1 (because, 0 based indexing)
    if a[i]==maximumValue: #if any value of list a is equal to maximum value then store its index to maxIndexList
        maxIndexList.append(i)

print(maxIndexList) #finally print the list

Another way without calculating the length of the list and storing maximum value to any variable,

maxIndexList = list()
index = 0 #variable to store index
for i in a: #iterate through the list (actually iterating through the value of list, not index )
    if i==max(a): #max(a) returns a maximum value of list.
        maxIndexList.append(index) #store the index of maximum value
index = index+1 #increment the index

print(maxIndexList)

We can do it in Pythonic and smart way! Using list comprehension just in one line,

maxIndexList = [i for i,j in enumerate(a) if j==max(a)] #here,i=index and j = value of that index

All my codes are in Python 3.
