如果列表由组和间歇分隔符组成，您可以使用:

def split(items, p):
    groups = [[]]
    for i in items:
        if p(i):
            groups.append([])
        groups[-1].append(i)
    return groups

用法:

split(range(1,11), lambda x: x % 3 == 0)
# gives [[1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8], [9, 10]]

这是这个问题的另一个解决方案。我需要一个尽可能快的解决方案。这意味着只对列表进行一次迭代，并且最好是O(1)用于向结果列表之一添加数据。这与sastanin提供的解决方案非常相似，只是更短:

from collections import deque

def split(iterable, function):
    dq_true = deque()
    dq_false = deque()

    # deque - the fastest way to consume an iterator and append items
    deque((
      (dq_true if function(item) else dq_false).append(item) for item in iterable
    ), maxlen=0)

    return dq_true, dq_false

此时，可以按照如下方式使用该函数:

lower, higher = split([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9], lambda x: x < 5)

selected, other = split([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9], lambda x: x in {0,4,9})

如果你对结果的deque对象不满意，你可以很容易地将其转换为list、set或任何你喜欢的对象(例如list(lower))。转换要快得多，直接构建列表。

该方法保持项目的顺序，以及任何副本。

itertools。Groupby几乎可以满足您的要求，除了它要求对条目进行排序以确保您获得一个连续的范围之外，因此您需要首先根据键进行排序(否则您将为每种类型获得多个交错的组)。如。

def is_good(f):
    return f[2].lower() in IMAGE_TYPES

files = [ ('file1.jpg', 33L, '.jpg'), ('file2.avi', 999L, '.avi'), ('file3.gif', 123L, '.gif')]

for key, group in itertools.groupby(sorted(files, key=is_good), key=is_good):
    print key, list(group)

给:

False [('file2.avi', 999L, '.avi')]
True [('file1.jpg', 33L, '.jpg'), ('file3.gif', 123L, '.gif')]

与其他解决方案类似，可以将键func定义为任意数量的组。

下面是惰性迭代器方法:

from itertools import tee

def split_on_condition(seq, condition):
    l1, l2 = tee((condition(item), item) for item in seq)
    return (i for p, i in l1 if p), (i for p, i in l2 if not p)

它对每个项计算一次条件，并返回两个生成器，第一个生成条件为真时序列中的值，另一个生成条件为假时序列中的值。

因为它是惰性的，你可以在任何迭代器上使用它，甚至是无限迭代器:

from itertools import count, islice

def is_prime(n):
    return n > 1 and all(n % i for i in xrange(2, n))

primes, not_primes = split_on_condition(count(), is_prime)
print("First 10 primes", list(islice(primes, 10)))
print("First 10 non-primes", list(islice(not_primes, 10)))

通常情况下，非惰性列表返回方法会更好:

def split_on_condition(seq, condition):
    a, b = [], []
    for item in seq:
        (a if condition(item) else b).append(item)
    return a, b

编辑:对于您更具体的用例，将项目按某些键分割到不同的列表中，这里有一个通用函数:

DROP_VALUE = lambda _:_
def split_by_key(seq, resultmapping, keyfunc, default=DROP_VALUE):
    """Split a sequence into lists based on a key function.

        seq - input sequence
        resultmapping - a dictionary that maps from target lists to keys that go to that list
        keyfunc - function to calculate the key of an input value
        default - the target where items that don't have a corresponding key go, by default they are dropped
    """
    result_lists = dict((key, []) for key in resultmapping)
    appenders = dict((key, result_lists[target].append) for target, keys in resultmapping.items() for key in keys)

    if default is not DROP_VALUE:
        result_lists.setdefault(default, [])
        default_action = result_lists[default].append
    else:
        default_action = DROP_VALUE

    for item in seq:
        appenders.get(keyfunc(item), default_action)(item)

    return result_lists

用法:

def file_extension(f):
    return f[2].lower()

split_files = split_by_key(files, {'images': IMAGE_TYPES}, keyfunc=file_extension, default='anims')
print split_files['images']
print split_files['anims']

一个基于生成器的版本，如果你能忍受一个或两个原始列表的反转。

设置…

random.seed(1234)
a = list(range(10))
random.shuffle(a)
a
[2, 8, 3, 5, 6, 4, 9, 0, 1, 7]

至于分裂……

(list((a.pop(j) for j, y in [(len(a)-i-1, x) for i,x in enumerate(a[::-1])] if y%2 == 0))[::-1], a)
([2, 8, 6, 4, 0], [3, 5, 9, 1, 7])

Another list of tuples of locations and each element is built in reverse order. In a generator wrapped round that each element is tested against the predicate (here test for even) and if True then the element is poped using previously computed locations. We are working backwards along the list so poping elements out does not change positions closer to the beginning of the list. A wrapping list() evaluates the generator and a final revers [::-1] puts the elements back in the right order. The original list "a" now only contains elements that for which the predicate is False.

所有提出的解决方案的问题是，它将扫描和应用过滤功能两次。我会做一个简单的小函数，像这样:

def split_into_two_lists(lst, f):
    a = []
    b = []
    for elem in lst:
        if f(elem):
            a.append(elem)
        else:
            b.append(elem)
    return a, b

这样你就不会重复处理任何东西，也不会重复代码。
