生成器是一种简单的编写方法:

from __future__ import division
# ^- so that 3/2 is 1.5 not 1

def averages( lst ):
    it = iter(lst) # Get a iterator over the list
    first = next(it)
    for item in it:
        yield (first+item)/2
        first = item

print list(averages(range(1,11)))
# [1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5]

n = int(input("Enter the length of array: "))
list1 = []
for i in range(n):
    list1.append(int(input("Enter numbers: ")))
print("User inputs are", list1)

list2 = []
for j in range(0, n-1):
    list2.append((list1[j]+list1[j+1])/2)
print("result = ", list2)

你可以试试这种方法:

a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
sm = sum(a[0:len(a)]) # Sum of 'a' from 0 index to 9 index. sum(a) == sum(a[0:len(a)]
print(sm) # Python 3
print sm  # Python 2

你也可以使用递归来做同样的事情:

Python代码片段:

def sumOfArray(arr, startIndex):
    size = len(arr)
    if size == startIndex:  # To Check empty list
        return 0
    elif startIndex == (size - 1): # To Check Last Value
        return arr[startIndex]
    else:
        return arr[startIndex] + sumOfArray(arr, startIndex + 1)


print(sumOfArray([1,2,3,4,5], 0))

本着itertools的精神。灵感来自双人食谱。

from itertools import tee, izip

def average(iterable):
    "s -> (s0,s1)/2.0, (s1,s2)/2.0, ..."
    a, b = tee(iterable)
    next(b, None)
    return ((x+y)/2.0 for x, y in izip(a, b))

例子:

>>>list(average([1,2,3,4,5]))
[1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5]
>>>list(average([1,20,31,45,56,0,0]))
[10.5, 25.5, 38.0, 50.5, 28.0, 0.0]
>>>list(average(average([1,2,3,4,5])))
[2.0, 3.0, 4.0]

我只使用带有map()的

a = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
b = map(lambda x, y: (x+y)/2.0, fib[:-1], fib[1:])
print b
