Question

现在从Python 3.7（和insertion order of Python dictionaries is guaranteed）开始的in CPython 3.6，按字符串和按键排序字典的最佳/最快方法是什么？

最明显的做法可能就是：

by_key = {k: dct[k] for k in sorted(dct.keys())}
by_value = {k: dct[k] for k in sorted(dct.keys(), key=dct.__getitem__)}

是否有其他更快的方法可以做到这一点？

请注意，这个问题并不重复，因为之前有关如何对字典进行排序的问题已经过时（答案基本上是你不能;使用collections.OrderedDict而不是< / em>的）。

Answer 1

TL; DR：在CPython 3.7中按键或按值排序的最佳方法：

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d)}
{k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(1))}

使用sys.version：

在Macbook上测试

3.7.0b4 (v3.7.0b4:eb96c37699, May  2 2018, 04:13:13)
[Clang 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)]

使用1000个浮点数的一次性设置：

>>> import random
>>> random.seed(123)
>>> d = {random.random(): random.random() for i in range(1000)}

按键排序数字（从最好到最差）：

>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d)}
# 296 µs ± 2.6 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d.keys())}
# 306 µs ± 9.25 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(0)))
# 345 µs ± 4.15 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(0))}
# 359 µs ± 2.42 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[0]))
# 391 µs ± 8.7 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items()))
# 409 µs ± 9.33 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items())}
# 420 µs ± 5.39 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[0])}
# 432 µs ± 39.6 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)

按值排序数字（从最好到最差）：

>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(1))}
# 355 µs ± 2.24 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(1)))
# 375 µs ± 31.7 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[1])}
# 393 µs ± 1.89 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[1]))
# 402 µs ± 9.74 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.get)}
# 404 µs ± 3.55 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.__getitem__)}
# 404 µs ± 20.3 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=lambda k: d[k])}
# 480 µs ± 12 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000 loops each)

使用大字符串的一次性设置：

>>> import random
>>> from pathlib import Path
>>> from operator import itemgetter
>>> random.seed(456)
>>> words = Path('/usr/share/dict/words').read_text().splitlines()
>>> random.shuffle(words)
>>> keys = words.copy()
>>> random.shuffle(words)
>>> values = words.copy()
>>> d = dict(zip(keys, values))
>>> list(d.items())[:5]
[('ragman', 'polemoscope'),
 ('fenite', 'anaesthetically'),
 ('pycnidiophore', 'Colubridae'),
 ('propagate', 'premiss'),
 ('postponable', 'Eriglossa')]
>>> len(d)
235886

按键排序字符串：

>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d)}
# 387 ms ± 1.98 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d.keys())}
# 387 ms ± 2.87 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(0)))
# 461 ms ± 1.61 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[0]))
# 466 ms ± 2.62 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(0))}
# 488 ms ± 10.5 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[0])}
# 536 ms ± 16.6 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items()))
# 661 ms ± 9.09 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items())}
# 687 ms ± 5.38 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)

按值排序字符串的字典：

>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(1))}
# 468 ms ± 5.74 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=itemgetter(1)))
# 473 ms ± 2.52 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit dict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[1]))
# 492 ms ± 9.06 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: v for k,v in sorted(d.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[1])}
# 496 ms ± 1.87 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.__getitem__)}
# 533 ms ± 5.33 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.get)}
# 544 ms ± 6.1 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
>>> %timeit {k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=lambda k: d[k])}
# 566 ms ± 5.77 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)

注意：实际数据通常包含已经排序的长序列，Timsort算法可以利用这些序列。如果对快速路径进行排序，那么建议您使用自己的典型数据在自己的平台上进行基准测试，然后再得出有关最佳方法的任何结论。我在每个timeit结果上添加了一个注释字符（#），以便IPython用户可以复制/粘贴整个代码块，以便在自己的平台上重新运行所有测试。
