我考虑了几种方法:
import itertools
COLORED_THINGS = {'blue': ['sky', 'jeans', 'powerline insert mode'],
'yellow': ['sun', 'banana', 'phone book/monitor stand'],
'red': ['blood', 'tomato', 'test failure']}
def forloops():
""" Nested for loops. """
for color, things in COLORED_THINGS.items():
for thing in things:
pass
def iterator():
""" Use itertools and list comprehension to construct iterator. """
for color, thing in (
itertools.chain.from_iterable(
[itertools.product((k,), v) for k, v in COLORED_THINGS.items()])):
pass
def iterator_gen():
""" Use itertools and generator to construct iterator. """
for color, thing in (
itertools.chain.from_iterable(
(itertools.product((k,), v) for k, v in COLORED_THINGS.items()))):
pass
我使用 ipython 和memory_profiler来测试性能:
>>> %timeit forloops()
1000000 loops, best of 3: 1.31 µs per loop
>>> %timeit iterator()
100000 loops, best of 3: 3.58 µs per loop
>>> %timeit iterator_gen()
100000 loops, best of 3: 3.91 µs per loop
>>> %memit -r 1000 forloops()
peak memory: 35.79 MiB, increment: 0.02 MiB
>>> %memit -r 1000 iterator()
peak memory: 35.79 MiB, increment: 0.00 MiB
>>> %memit -r 1000 iterator_gen()
peak memory: 35.79 MiB, increment: 0.00 MiB
如您所见,该方法对峰值内存使用没有明显影响,但嵌套for
循环的速度无与伦比(更不用说可读性了)。
