获取字典中具有最大值的键?

问题:获取字典中具有最大值的键?

我有一个dictionary:键是字符串,值是整数。

例:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

我想得到'b'一个答案,因为它是具有更高价值的关键。

我使用带有反向键值元组的中间列表进行了以下操作:

inverse = [(value, key) for key, value in stats.items()]
print max(inverse)[1]

那是更好(或更优雅)的方法吗?

I have a dictionary: keys are strings, values are integers.

Example:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

I’d like to get 'b' as an answer, since it’s the key with a higher value.

I did the following, using an intermediate list with reversed key-value tuples:

inverse = [(value, key) for key, value in stats.items()]
print max(inverse)[1]

Is that one the better (or even more elegant) approach?

您可以使用operator.itemgetter

import operator
stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
max(stats.iteritems(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]

而不是在内存使用中构建新列表stats.iteritems()。该函数的key参数max()是一个函数,该函数计算用于确定如何对项目进行排名的键。

请注意,如果要使用另一个键值对“ d”:3000,则此方法将仅返回两个值中的一个,即使它们都具有最大值。

>>> import operator
>>> stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100, 'd':3000}
>>> max(stats.iteritems(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]
'b' 

如果使用Python3:

>>> max(stats.items(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]
'b'

You can use operator.itemgetter for that:

import operator
stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
max(stats.iteritems(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]

And instead of building a new list in memory use stats.iteritems(). The key parameter to the max() function is a function that computes a key that is used to determine how to rank items.

Please note that if you were to have another key-value pair ‘d’: 3000 that this method will only return one of the two even though they both have the maximum value.

>>> import operator
>>> stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100, 'd':3000}
>>> max(stats.iteritems(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]
'b' 

If using Python3:

>>> max(stats.items(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]
'b'

回答 1

max(stats, key=stats.get)
max(stats, key=stats.get)

我已经测试了许多变体,这是用最大值返回字典键的最快方法:

def keywithmaxval(d):
     """ a) create a list of the dict's keys and values; 
         b) return the key with the max value"""  
     v=list(d.values())
     k=list(d.keys())
     return k[v.index(max(v))]

为了给您一个想法,以下是一些候选方法:

def f1():  
     v=list(d1.values())
     k=list(d1.keys())
     return k[v.index(max(v))]

def f2():
    d3={v:k for k,v in d1.items()}
    return d3[max(d3)]

def f3():
    return list(filter(lambda t: t[1]==max(d1.values()), d1.items()))[0][0]    

def f3b():
    # same as f3 but remove the call to max from the lambda
    m=max(d1.values())
    return list(filter(lambda t: t[1]==m, d1.items()))[0][0]        

def f4():
    return [k for k,v in d1.items() if v==max(d1.values())][0]    

def f4b():
    # same as f4 but remove the max from the comprehension
    m=max(d1.values())
    return [k for k,v in d1.items() if v==m][0]        

def f5():
    return max(d1.items(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]    

def f6():
    return max(d1,key=d1.get)     

def f7():
     """ a) create a list of the dict's keys and values; 
         b) return the key with the max value"""    
     v=list(d1.values())
     return list(d1.keys())[v.index(max(v))]    

def f8():
     return max(d1, key=lambda k: d1[k])

您可以看到f1在Python 3.2和2.7下这是最快的(或者更完整地说,keywithmaxval在本文的顶部)

I have tested MANY variants, and this is the fastest way to return the key of dict with the max value:

def keywithmaxval(d):
     """ a) create a list of the dict's keys and values; 
         b) return the key with the max value"""  
     v=list(d.values())
     k=list(d.keys())
     return k[v.index(max(v))]

To give you an idea, here are some candidate methods:

def f1():  
     v=list(d1.values())
     k=list(d1.keys())
     return k[v.index(max(v))]

def f2():
    d3={v:k for k,v in d1.items()}
    return d3[max(d3)]

def f3():
    return list(filter(lambda t: t[1]==max(d1.values()), d1.items()))[0][0]    

def f3b():
    # same as f3 but remove the call to max from the lambda
    m=max(d1.values())
    return list(filter(lambda t: t[1]==m, d1.items()))[0][0]        

def f4():
    return [k for k,v in d1.items() if v==max(d1.values())][0]    

def f4b():
    # same as f4 but remove the max from the comprehension
    m=max(d1.values())
    return [k for k,v in d1.items() if v==m][0]        

def f5():
    return max(d1.items(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))[0]    

def f6():
    return max(d1,key=d1.get)     

def f7():
     """ a) create a list of the dict's keys and values; 
         b) return the key with the max value"""    
     v=list(d1.values())
     return list(d1.keys())[v.index(max(v))]    

def f8():

回答 3

如果你只需要知道与最高值的键,你可以不用iterkeys或者iteritems因为迭代通过Python字典是迭代通过它的键。

max_key = max(stats, key=lambda k: stats[k])

编辑:

从评论@ user1274878:

我是python的新手。您能分步解释您的答案吗?

是的

最高

max(iterable [,key])

max(arg1,arg2,* args [,key])

返回可迭代的最大项或两个或多个参数中的最大项。

可选key参数描述如何比较元素以获得最大的元素:

lambda <item>: return <a result of operation with item> 

返回的值将被比较。

辞典

Python dict是一个哈希表。dict的键是声明为键的对象的哈希。由于性能原因,尽管通过字典的键实现了迭代,但仍执行迭代。

因此,我们可以使用它来摆脱获取密钥列表的操作。

关闭

在另一个函数内部定义的函数称为嵌套函数。嵌套函数可以访问封闭范围的变量。

stats通过函数的__closure__属性可用的变量,lambda作为指向父范围中定义的变量值的指针。

If you need to know only a key with the max value you can do it without iterkeys or iteritems because iteration through dictionary in Python is iteration through it’s keys.

max_key = max(stats, key=lambda k: stats[k])

EDIT:

From comments, @user1274878 :

I am new to python. Can you please explain your answer in steps?

Yep…

max

max(iterable[, key])

max(arg1, arg2, *args[, key])

Return the largest item in an iterable or the largest of two or more arguments.

The optional key argument describes how to compare elements to get maximum among them:

lambda <item>: return <a result of operation with item> 

Returned values will be compared.

Dict

Python dict is a hash table. A key of dict is a hash of an object declared as a key. Due to performance reasons iteration though a dict implemented as iteration through it’s keys.

Therefore we can use it to rid operation of obtaining a keys list.

Closure

A function defined inside another function is called a nested function. Nested functions can access variables of the enclosing scope.

The stats variable available through __closure__ attribute of the lambda function as a pointer to the value of the variable defined in the parent scope.


回答 4

例:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

如果您想通过键找到最大值,则跟随可能很简单,而无需任何相关功能。

max(stats, key=stats.get)

输出是具有最大值的键。

Example:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

if you wanna find the max value with its key, maybe follwing could be simple, without any relevant functions.

max(stats, key=stats.get)

the output is the key which has the max value.


回答 5

这是另一个:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
max(stats.iterkeys(), key=lambda k: stats[k])

该函数key仅返回应用于排序的值,并立即max()返回所需的元素。

Here is another one:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
max(stats.iterkeys(), key=lambda k: stats[k])

The function key simply returns the value that should be used for ranking and max() returns the demanded element right away.


回答 6

key, value = max(stats.iteritems(), key=lambda x:x[1])

如果您不在乎价值(我会很惊讶,但是),您可以这样做:

key, _ = max(stats.iteritems(), key=lambda x:x[1])

与表达式末尾的[0]下标相比,我更喜欢将元组拆包。我从不非常喜欢lambda表达式的可读性,但是发现它比operator.itemgetter(1)更好。

key, value = max(stats.iteritems(), key=lambda x:x[1])

If you don’t care about value (I’d be surprised, but) you can do:

key, _ = max(stats.iteritems(), key=lambda x:x[1])

I like the tuple unpacking better than a [0] subscript at the end of the expression. I never like the readability of lambda expressions very much, but find this one better than the operator.itemgetter(1) IMHO.


回答 7

鉴于有多个条目,我拥有最大值。我将列出具有最大值的键。

>>> stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100, 'd':3000}
>>> [key for m in [max(stats.values())] for key,val in stats.iteritems() if val == m]
['b', 'd']

这也将为您提供“ b”和任何其他最大键。

注意:对于python 3,请使用stats.items()代替stats.iteritems()

Given that more than one entry my have the max value. I would make a list of the keys that have the max value as their value.

>>> stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100, 'd':3000}
>>> [key for m in [max(stats.values())] for key,val in stats.iteritems() if val == m]
['b', 'd']

This will give you ‘b’ and any other max key as well.

Note: For python 3 use stats.items() instead of stats.iteritems()


回答 8

您可以使用:

max(d, key = d.get) 
# which is equivalent to 
max(d, key = lambda k : d.get(k))

要返回键,值对使用:

max(d.items(), key = lambda k : k[1])

You can use:

max(d, key = d.get) 
# which is equivalent to 
max(d, key = lambda k : d.get(k))

To return the key, value pair use:

max(d.items(), key = lambda k : k[1])

回答 9

要获得字典的最大键/值stats

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
  • 基于

>>> max(stats.items(), key = lambda x: x[0]) ('c', 100)

  • 基于价值

>>> max(stats.items(), key = lambda x: x[1]) ('b', 3000)

当然,如果只想从结果中获取键或值,则可以使用元组索引。例如,要获取对应于最大值的密钥:

>>> max(stats.items(), key = lambda x: x[1])[0] 'b'

说明

items()Python 3中的dictionary方法返回字典的view对象。通过该max函数迭代该视图对象时,它会将字典项生成为form的元组(key, value)

>>> list(stats.items()) [('c', 100), ('b', 3000), ('a', 1000)]

使用lambda表达式时lambda x: x[1],在每次迭代中,x 都是这些元组之一(key, value)。因此,通过选择正确的索引,您可以选择是按键还是按值进行比较。

Python 2

对于Python 2.2+版本,相同的代码将起作用。但是,最好使用iteritems()字典方法而不是items()性能。

笔记

To get the maximum key/value of the dictionary stats:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
  • Based on keys

>>> max(stats.items(), key = lambda x: x[0]) ('c', 100)

  • Based on values

>>> max(stats.items(), key = lambda x: x[1]) ('b', 3000)

Of course, if you want to get only the key or value from the result, you can use tuple indexing. For Example, to get the key corresponding to the maximum value:

>>> max(stats.items(), key = lambda x: x[1])[0] 'b'

Explanation

The dictionary method items() in Python 3 returns a view object of the dictionary. When this view object is iterated over, by the max function, it yields the dictionary items as tuples of the form (key, value).

>>> list(stats.items()) [('c', 100), ('b', 3000), ('a', 1000)]

When you use the lambda expression lambda x: x[1], in each iteration, x is one of these tuples (key, value). So, by choosing the right index, you select whether you want to compare by keys or by values.

Python 2

For Python 2.2+ releases, the same code will work. However, it is better to use iteritems() dictionary method instead of items() for performance.

我到达这里是mydict.keys()根据的值寻找如何返回mydict.values()。我不只是返回一个键,而是希望返回前x个值。

该解决方案比使用该max()函数更简单,并且您可以轻松更改返回的值数量:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

x = sorted(stats, key=(lambda key:stats[key]), reverse=True)
['b', 'a', 'c']

如果要使用单个最高排名的键,只需使用索引:

x[0]
['b']

如果要使用排名最高的前两个键,请使用列表切片:

x[:2]
['b', 'a']

I got here looking for how to return mydict.keys() based on the value of mydict.values(). Instead of just the one key returned, I was looking to return the top x number of values.

This solution is simpler than using the max() function and you can easily change the number of values returned:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

x = sorted(stats, key=(lambda key:stats[key]), reverse=True)
['b', 'a', 'c']

If you want the single highest ranking key, just use the index:

x[0]
['b']

If you want the top two highest ranking keys, just use list slicing:

x[:2]
['b', 'a']

回答 13

我对这些答案都不满意。max总是选择具有最大值的第一个键。字典可以有多个具有该值的键。

def keys_with_top_values(my_dict):
    return [key  for (key, value) in my_dict.items() if value == max(my_dict.values())]

发布此答案,以防有人帮忙。见下面的SO帖子

如果是平局,Python会选择哪个最大值?

I was not satisfied with any of these answers. max always picks the first key with the max value. The dictionary could have multiple keys with that value.

def keys_with_top_values(my_dict):
    return [key  for (key, value) in my_dict.items() if value == max(my_dict.values())]

Posting this answer in case it helps someone out. See the below SO post

回答 14

collections.Counter你可以做

>>> import collections
>>> stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
>>> stats = collections.Counter(stats)
>>> stats.most_common(1)
[('b', 3000)]

如果合适,您可以简单地以空开头collections.Counter并添加到其中

>>> stats = collections.Counter()
>>> stats['a'] += 1
:
etc. 

With collections.Counter you could do

>>> import collections
>>> stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}
>>> stats = collections.Counter(stats)
>>> stats.most_common(1)
[('b', 3000)]

If appropriate, you could simply start with an empty collections.Counter and add to it

>>> stats = collections.Counter()
>>> stats['a'] += 1
:
etc.

堆队列是一种通用解决方案,它允许您提取按值排序的前n个键:

from heapq import nlargest

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

res1 = nlargest(1, stats, key=stats.__getitem__)  # ['b']
res2 = nlargest(2, stats, key=stats.__getitem__)  # ['b', 'a']

res1_val = next(iter(res1))                       # 'b'

注意dict.__getitem__是语法糖调用的方法dict[]。与相对dict.getKeyError如果未找到密钥,它将返回,在此不会发生。

A heap queue is a generalised solution which allows you to extract the top n keys ordered by value:

from heapq import nlargest

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100}

res1 = nlargest(1, stats, key=stats.__getitem__)  # ['b']
res2 = nlargest(2, stats, key=stats.__getitem__)  # ['b', 'a']

res1_val = next(iter(res1))                       # 'b'

Note dict.__getitem__ is the method called by the syntactic sugar dict[]. As opposed to dict.get, it will return KeyError if a key is not found, which here cannot occur.

如果您有多个具有相同值的键,例如:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100, 'd':3000, 'e':3000}

您可以获得具有最大值的所有键的集合,如下所示:

from collections import defaultdict
from collections import OrderedDict

groupedByValue = defaultdict(list)
for key, value in sorted(stats.items()):
    groupedByValue[value].append(key)

# {1000: ['a'], 3000: ['b', 'd', 'e'], 100: ['c']}

groupedByValue[max(groupedByValue)]
# ['b', 'd', 'e']

In the case you have more than one key with the same value, for example:

stats = {'a':1000, 'b':3000, 'c': 100, 'd':3000, 'e':3000}

You could get a collection with all the keys with max value as follow:

from collections import defaultdict
from collections import OrderedDict

groupedByValue = defaultdict(list)
for key, value in sorted(stats.items()):
    groupedByValue[value].append(key)

# {1000: ['a'], 3000: ['b', 'd', 'e'], 100: ['c']}

groupedByValue[max(groupedByValue)]
# ['b', 'd', 'e']

更简单易懂的方法:

dict = { 'a':302, 'e':53, 'g':302, 'h':100 }
max_value_keys = [key for key in dict.keys() if dict[key] == max(dict.values())]
print(max_value_keys) # prints a list of keys with max value

输出: [‘a’,’g’]

现在您只能选择一个键:

maximum = dict[max_value_keys[0]]

Much simpler to understand approach:

dict = { 'a':302, 'e':53, 'g':302, 'h':100 }
max_value_keys = [key for key in dict.keys() if dict[key] == max(dict.values())]
print(max_value_keys) # prints a list of keys with max value

Output: [‘a’, ‘g’]

Now you can choose only one key:

maximum = dict[max_value_keys[0]]
