函数对于list类型的值是对称的;执行reverse_dict(reverse_dict(dictionary))时，元组被转换为列表

def reverse_dict(dictionary):
    reverse_dict = {}
    for key, value in dictionary.iteritems():
        if not isinstance(value, (list, tuple)):
            value = [value]
        for val in value:
            reverse_dict[val] = reverse_dict.get(val, [])
            reverse_dict[val].append(key)
    for key, value in reverse_dict.iteritems():
        if len(value) == 1:
            reverse_dict[key] = value[0]
    return reverse_dict

字典值为集合的一种情况。如:

some_dict = {"1":{"a","b","c"},
        "2":{"d","e","f"},
        "3":{"g","h","i"}}

逆函数是:

some_dict = {vi: k  for k, v in some_dict.items() for vi in v}

输出如下:

{'c': '1',
 'b': '1',
 'a': '1',
 'f': '2',
 'd': '2',
 'e': '2',
 'g': '3',
 'h': '3',
 'i': '3'}

列表和字典理解的结合。可以处理重复的密钥

{v:[i for i in d.keys() if d[i] == v ] for k,v in d.items()}

除了上面建议的其他函数，如果你喜欢lambdas:

invert = lambda mydict: {v:k for k, v in mydict.items()}

或者，你也可以这样做:

invert = lambda mydict: dict( zip(mydict.values(), mydict.keys()) )

要做到这一点，同时保留映射的类型(假设它是一个dict或dict子类):

def inverse_mapping(f):
    return f.__class__(map(reversed, f.items()))

    for key, value in reverse_dict.iteritems():
        if len(value) == 1:
            reverse_dict[key] = value[0]
    return reverse_dict
