这里有很多答案，但我认为这是一个相对易于阅读和理解的方法:

def get_duplicates(sorted_list):
    duplicates = []
    last = sorted_list[0]
    for x in sorted_list[1:]:
        if x == last:
            duplicates.append(x)
        last = x
    return set(duplicates)

注:

如果您希望保留重复计数，请去掉强制转换 'set'在底部获得完整的列表 如果您更喜欢使用生成器，请将duplicate .append(x)替换为yield x和底部的return语句(您可以稍后强制转换为set)

在Python中，只需一次迭代就可以找到被愚弄的人，这是一个非常简单快速的方法:

testList = ['red', 'blue', 'red', 'green', 'blue', 'blue']

testListDict = {}

for item in testList:
  try:
    testListDict[item] += 1
  except:
    testListDict[item] = 1

print testListDict

输出内容如下:

>>> print testListDict
{'blue': 3, 'green': 1, 'red': 2}

假设我们有这个元素列表:

a = [1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 5, 6, 5, 5, 5]

我们可以只使用集合来找到唯一的元素:

unique = set()
for num in a:
    if num not in unique:
        unique.add(num)
    else:
        unique = unique - set([num])

最后:

>>> unique
{3, 6}

如果你想要得到副本，你可以简单地做:

>>> duplicates = set(a) - unique
>>> duplicates
{1, 2, 5}

注:

集合中的元素查找是O(1) 从集合中移除的元素是O(1)

我会用熊猫做这个，因为我经常用熊猫

import pandas as pd
a = [1,2,3,3,3,4,5,6,6,7]
vc = pd.Series(a).value_counts()
vc[vc > 1].index.tolist()

给了

[3,6]

可能不是很有效，但它肯定比许多其他答案的代码更少，所以我想我可以贡献一下

在没有任何python数据结构的帮助下，你可以简单地尝试下面的代码。这将工作于寻找重复的各种输入，如字符串，列表等。

# finding duplicates in unsorted an array 
def duplicates(numbers):
    store=[]
    checked=[]
    for i in range(len(numbers)):
        counter =1 
        for j in range(i+1,len(numbers)):
            if numbers[i] not in checked and numbers[j]==numbers[i] :
                counter +=1 
        if counter > 1 :
            store.append(numbers[i])
            checked.append(numbers[i])
    return store

print(duplicates([1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,5]))  # output:  [2, 3, 4]
print(duplicates("madam"))              # output:  ['m', 'a']

你不需要计数，只需要该物品之前是否被看到过。把这个答案用在这个问题上:

def list_duplicates(seq):
  seen = set()
  seen_add = seen.add
  # adds all elements it doesn't know yet to seen and all other to seen_twice
  seen_twice = set( x for x in seq if x in seen or seen_add(x) )
  # turn the set into a list (as requested)
  return list( seen_twice )

a = [1,2,3,2,1,5,6,5,5,5]
list_duplicates(a) # yields [1, 2, 5]

以防速度很重要，这里有一些时间安排:

# file: test.py
import collections

def thg435(l):
    return [x for x, y in collections.Counter(l).items() if y > 1]

def moooeeeep(l):
    seen = set()
    seen_add = seen.add
    # adds all elements it doesn't know yet to seen and all other to seen_twice
    seen_twice = set( x for x in l if x in seen or seen_add(x) )
    # turn the set into a list (as requested)
    return list( seen_twice )

def RiteshKumar(l):
    return list(set([x for x in l if l.count(x) > 1]))

def JohnLaRooy(L):
    seen = set()
    seen2 = set()
    seen_add = seen.add
    seen2_add = seen2.add
    for item in L:
        if item in seen:
            seen2_add(item)
        else:
            seen_add(item)
    return list(seen2)

l = [1,2,3,2,1,5,6,5,5,5]*100

以下是结果:(做得好@JohnLaRooy!)

$ python -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.JohnLaRooy(test.l)'
10000 loops, best of 3: 74.6 usec per loop
$ python -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.moooeeeep(test.l)'
10000 loops, best of 3: 91.3 usec per loop
$ python -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.thg435(test.l)'
1000 loops, best of 3: 266 usec per loop
$ python -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.RiteshKumar(test.l)'
100 loops, best of 3: 8.35 msec per loop

有趣的是，除了计时本身，当使用pypy时，排名也略有变化。最有趣的是，基于counter的方法极大地受益于pypy的优化，而我建议的方法缓存方法似乎几乎没有任何效果。

$ pypy -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.JohnLaRooy(test.l)'
100000 loops, best of 3: 17.8 usec per loop
$ pypy -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.thg435(test.l)'
10000 loops, best of 3: 23 usec per loop
$ pypy -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.moooeeeep(test.l)'
10000 loops, best of 3: 39.3 usec per loop

显然，这种效应与输入数据的“重复性”有关。我设置了l = [random.randrange(1000000) for I in xrange(10000)]，得到了这些结果:

$ pypy -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.moooeeeep(test.l)'
1000 loops, best of 3: 495 usec per loop
$ pypy -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.JohnLaRooy(test.l)'
1000 loops, best of 3: 499 usec per loop
$ pypy -mtimeit -s 'import test' 'test.thg435(test.l)'
1000 loops, best of 3: 1.68 msec per loop
