如何在Python3.x中获得类似2.x的排序行为？

我试图在3.x中复制（并且如果可能的话改进）Python2.x的排序行为，以便像

int

、

float

等相互可排序的类型按预期排序，并且在输出中对相互不可排序的类型进行分组

下面是我所说的一个例子：

>>> sorted([0, 'one', 2.3, 'four', -5])  # Python 2.x
[-5, 0, 2.3, 'four', 'one']

然而，这并不是我想要的。首先，它打破了相互可排序类型的自然排序：

>>> sorted([0, 123.4, 5, -6, 7.89])
[-6, 0, 5, 7.89, 123.4]
>>> sorted([0, 123.4, 5, -6, 7.89], key=motley)
[7.89, 123.4, -6, 0, 5]

>>> sorted([{1:2}, {3:4}], key=motley)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unorderable types: dict() < dict()

其次，当输入包含两个本质上不可排序类型相同的对象时，会引发异常：

>>> sorted([{1:2}, {3:4}], key=motley)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unorderable types: dict() < dict()

。。。它的工作原理如下：

>>> sorted([0, 'one', 2.3, 'four', -5], key=motley)
[-5, 0, 2.3, 'four', 'one']

。。。但没有考虑到可能存在其他相互可排序的不同（可能是用户定义的）类型，当然，对于本质上不可排序的类型仍然失败：

>>> sorted([0, 123.4, 5, -6, 7.89])
[-6, 0, 5, 7.89, 123.4]
>>> sorted([0, 123.4, 5, -6, 7.89], key=motley)
[7.89, 123.4, -6, 0, 5]

>>> sorted([{1:2}, {3:4}], key=motley)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unorderable types: dict() < dict()

排序（[{1:2}，{3:4}]，key=motley） 回溯（最近一次呼叫最后一次）： 文件“”，第1行，在 TypeError:无序类型：dict（）

---

有没有另一种方法既能解决任意、不同但相互有序类型的问题，又能解决本质上不可有序类型的问题？

愚蠢的想法：第一步，将所有不同的项目分成可以相互比较的组，对各个组进行排序，最后将它们连接起来。我假设一个项目可以与一个组的所有成员进行比较，前提是它可以与一个组的第一个成员进行比较。类似这样的东西（蟒蛇3）：

---

这似乎也是一种“稳定排序”，因为组是按照遇到不可比较项的顺序形成的。

这个答案的目的是在Python3中忠实地重新创建Python2排序顺序的每个细节

实际的Python2实现相当复杂，但是在实例有机会实现正常的比较规则之后，最终的回退是否会发生。这是在给了单个类型一个比较的机会之后（通过

\uuuu cmp\uuuuuu

或

\uuuu lt\uuuuu

钩子）

在包装器中以纯Python的形式实现该函数，再加上模拟规则的异常（

dict

，特别是复数），我们可以在Python 3中获得相同的Python 2排序语义：

from numbers import Number


# decorator for type to function mapping special cases
def per_type_cmp(type_):
    try:
        mapping = per_type_cmp.mapping
    except AttributeError:
        mapping = per_type_cmp.mapping = {}
    def decorator(cmpfunc):
        mapping[type_] = cmpfunc
        return cmpfunc
    return decorator


class python2_sort_key(object):
    _unhandled_types = {complex}

    def __init__(self, ob):
       self._ob = ob

    def __lt__(self, other):
        _unhandled_types = self._unhandled_types
        self, other = self._ob, other._ob  # we don't care about the wrapper

        # default_3way_compare is used only if direct comparison failed
        try:
            return self < other
        except TypeError:
            pass

        # hooks to implement special casing for types, dict in Py2 has
        # a dedicated __cmp__ method that is gone in Py3 for example.
        for type_, special_cmp in per_type_cmp.mapping.items():
            if isinstance(self, type_) and isinstance(other, type_):
                return special_cmp(self, other)

        # explicitly raise again for types that won't sort in Python 2 either
        if type(self) in _unhandled_types:
            raise TypeError('no ordering relation is defined for {}'.format(
                type(self).__name__))
        if type(other) in _unhandled_types:
            raise TypeError('no ordering relation is defined for {}'.format(
                type(other).__name__))

        # default_3way_compare from Python 2 as Python code
        # same type but no ordering defined, go by id
        if type(self) is type(other):
            return id(self) < id(other)

        # None always comes first
        if self is None:
            return True
        if other is None:
            return False

        # Sort by typename, but numbers are sorted before other types
        self_tname = '' if isinstance(self, Number) else type(self).__name__
        other_tname = '' if isinstance(other, Number) else type(other).__name__

        if self_tname != other_tname:
            return self_tname < other_tname

        # same typename, or both numbers, but different type objects, order
        # by the id of the type object
        return id(type(self)) < id(type(other))


@per_type_cmp(dict)
def dict_cmp(a, b, _s=object()):
    if len(a) != len(b):
        return len(a) < len(b)
    adiff = min((k for k in a if a[k] != b.get(k, _s)), key=python2_sort_key, default=_s)
    if adiff is _s:
        # All keys in a have a matching value in b, so the dicts are equal
        return False
    bdiff = min((k for k in b if b[k] != a.get(k, _s)), key=python2_sort_key)
    if adiff != bdiff:
        return python2_sort_key(adiff) < python2_sort_key(bdiff)
    return python2_sort_key(a[adiff]) < python2_sort_key(b[bdiff])

如果您想精确地模拟Python 2的行为，可能需要添加更多的特殊情况

如果你想对复杂的数字进行排序，你需要将它们与非数字组一致地放在一起；e、 g:

# Sort by typename, but numbers are sorted before other types
if isinstance(self, Number) and not isinstance(self, complex):
    self_tname = ''
else:
    self_tname = type(self).__name__
if isinstance(other, Number) and not isinstance(other, complex):
    other_tname = ''
else:
    other_tname = type(other).__name__

一些测试用例：

>>> sorted([0, 'one', 2.3, 'four', -5], key=python2_sort_key)
[-5, 0, 2.3, 'four', 'one']
>>> sorted([0, 123.4, 5, -6, 7.89], key=python2_sort_key)
[-6, 0, 5, 7.89, 123.4]
>>> sorted([{1:2}, {3:4}], key=python2_sort_key)
[{1: 2}, {3: 4}]
>>> sorted([{1:2}, None, {3:4}], key=python2_sort_key)
[None, {1: 2}, {3: 4}]

---

这里没有运行Python3，但类似的东西可能会起作用。测试以查看对“值”执行“小于”比较是否会创建异常，然后执行“某些操作”来处理该情况，例如将其转换为字符串

当然，如果列表中有其他类型不是同一类型但可以相互排序，则仍然需要更特殊的处理

from numbers import Real
from decimal import Decimal

def motley(value):
    numeric = Real, Decimal
    if isinstance(value, numeric):
        typeinfo = numeric
    else:
        typeinfo = type(value)

    try:
        x = value < value
    except TypeError:
        value = repr(value)

    return repr(typeinfo), value

>>> print sorted([0, 'one', 2.3, 'four', -5, (2+3j), (1-3j)], key=motley)
[-5, 0, 2.3, (1-3j), (2+3j), 'four', 'one']

从数字导入实数
从十进制输入十进制
def杂色（值）：
数字=实数，十进制
如果isinstance（值，数字）：
类型信息=数字
其他：
类型信息=类型（值）
尝试：
x=值<值
除类型错误外：
值=repr（值）
返回repr（typeinfo），值
>>>打印排序（[0，'1'，2.3，'4'，-5，（2+3j），（1-3j）]，键=杂色）
[-5,0,2.3，（1-3j），（2+3j），‘四’，‘一’]

为了避免使用异常和基于类型的解决方案，我提出了以下建议：

#! /usr/bin/python3

import itertools

def p2Sort(x):
    notImpl = type(0j.__gt__(0j))
    it = iter(x)
    first = next(it)
    groups = [[first]]
    types = {type(first):0}
    for item in it:
        item_type = type(item)
        if item_type in types.keys():
            groups[types[item_type]].append(item)
        else:
            types[item_type] = len(types)
            groups.append([item])

    #debuggng
    for group in groups:
        print(group)
        for it in group:
            print(type(it),)
    #

    for i in range(len(groups)):
        if type(groups[i][0].__gt__(groups[i][0])) == notImpl:
            continue
        groups[i] = sorted(groups[i])

    return itertools.chain.from_iterable(group for group in groups)

x = [0j, 'one', 2.3, 'four', -5, 3j, 0j,  -5.5, 13 , 15.3, 'aa', 'zz']
print(list(p2Sort(x)))

注意，需要一个额外的字典来保存列表中的不同类型，还需要一个类型保存变量（notImpl）。进一步注意，这里不混合float和int

输出：

Python 3.2+的一种方法是使用。 有了它，您可以快速实现一个解决方案，该解决方案尝试比较值，然后再回头比较类型的字符串表示形式。您还可以避免在比较无序类型时引发错误，并保持顺序与原始情况相同：

from functools import cmp_to_key

def cmp(a,b):
    try:
        return (a > b) - (a < b)
    except TypeError:
        s1, s2 = type(a).__name__, type(b).__name__
        return (s1 > s2) - (s1 < s2)

---

这样做的缺点是总是进行三方比较，增加了时间复杂度。但是，该解决方案开销低、简洁，我认为

cmp\u to\u key（）

是为这种Python 2仿真用例开发的。

我们可以通过以下方式解决此问题

按类型分组

通过尝试比较每种类型的单一代表性，找出可比较的类型

合并可比较类型的组

如果可能，对合并的组进行排序

来自（已排序）合并组的产量

通过使用

repr（type（x））

，我们可以从类型中获得确定性和可排序的键函数。请注意，此处的“类型层次结构”由类型本身的repr决定。此方法中的一个缺陷是，如果两个类型具有相同的

\uuuu repr\uuuu

（类型本身，而不是实例），则会“混淆”类型。这可以通过使用一个返回元组

（repr（type），id（type））

的键函数来解决，但我没有在这个解决方案中实现它

与Bas Swinkel方法相比，我的方法的优点是更干净地处理一组不可排序的元素。我们没有二次行为；相反，在sorted（）期间第一次尝试排序后，函数将放弃

在iterable中有大量不同类型的情况下，我的方法功能最差。这是一种罕见的情况，但我想它可能会出现
