Replacing list item with contents of another list

问题


Similar to this question, but instead of replacing one item with another, I'd like to replace any occurrences of one item with the contents of a list.

orig = [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'c' ]
repl = [ 'x', 'y', 'z' ]
desired = [ 'a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd', 'x', 'y', 'z' ]

# these are all incorrect, or fail to compile
[ repl if x == 'c' else x for x in orig ]
[ [a for a in orig] if x == 'c' else x for x in orig ]
[ (a for a in orig) if x == 'c' else x for x in orig ]
[ a for a in orig if x == 'c' else x for x in orig ]

Edit: made it clear I meant to replace all occurrences of the item, rather than just the first. (Apologies to anyone who didn't cover that case in their answer.)


回答1:


Different approach: when I'm doing replacements, I prefer to think in terms of dictionaries. So I'd do something like

>>> orig = [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd' ]
>>> rep = {'c': ['x', 'y', 'z']}
>>> [i for c in orig for i in rep.get(c, [c])]
['a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd']

where the last line is the standard flattening idiom.

One advantage (disadvantage?) of this approach is that it'll handle multiple occurrences of 'c'.

[update:]

Or, if you prefer:

>>> from itertools import chain
>>> list(chain.from_iterable(rep.get(c, [c]) for c in orig))
['a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd']

On the revised test case:

>>> orig = [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'c' ]
>>> rep = {'c': ['x', 'y', 'z']}
>>> list(chain.from_iterable(rep.get(c, [c]) for c in orig))
['a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd', 'x', 'y', 'z']



回答2:


>>> orig = [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd' ]
>>> repl = [ 'x', 'y', 'z' ]
>>> desired = list(orig)  #can skip this and just use `orig` if you don't mind modifying it (and it is a list already)
>>> desired[2:3] = repl
>>> desired
['a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd']

And of course, if you don't know that 'c' is at index 2, you can use orig.index('c') to find out that information.




回答3:


No need for anything fancy:

desired = orig[:2] + repl + orig[3:]

To find 2 you can search for orig.index('c').

x = orig.index('c')
desired = orig[:x] + repl + orig[x+1:]

if repl is not a list, just use list(repl)




回答4:


If you enumerate backwards, you can extend the list as you go because the items you move have already gone through the enumeration.

>>> orig = [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'c' ]
>>> repl = [ 'x', 'y', 'z' ]
>>> desired = [ 'a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd', 'x', 'y', 'z' ]
>>> for i in xrange(len(orig)-1, -1, -1):
...     if orig[i] == 'c':
...             orig[i:i+1] = repl
... 
>>> orig
['a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd', 'x', 'y', 'z']

Yet another way:

>>> import operator
>>> orig = [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'c' ]
>>> repl = [ 'x', 'y', 'z' ]
>>> output = [repl if x == 'c' else [x] for x in orig]
>>> reduce(operator.add, output)
['a', 'b', 'x', 'y', 'z', 'd', 'x', 'y', 'z']
>>>
