a = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]
b = [3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1]

A和b应该被认为是相等的,因为它们有完全相同的元素,只是顺序不同。

问题是,我的实际列表将由对象(我的类实例)组成,而不是整数。

代入这个:

def lists_equal(l1: list, l2: list) -> bool:
    """

    import collections
    compare = lambda x, y: collections.Counter(x) == collections.Counter(y)
    ref:

        - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7828867/how-to-efficiently-compare-two-unordered-lists-not-sets
    """
    compare = lambda x, y: collections.Counter(x) == collections.Counter(y)
    set_comp = set(l1) == set(l2)  # removes duplicates, so returns true when not sometimes :(
    multiset_comp = compare(l1, l2)  # approximates multiset
    return set_comp and multiset_comp  #set_comp is gere in case the compare function doesn't work

其他回答

O(n): Counter()方法是最好的(如果你的对象是可哈希的):

def compare(s, t):
    return Counter(s) == Counter(t)

O(n log n): sorted()方法是次优方法(如果你的对象是可排序的):

def compare(s, t):
    return sorted(s) == sorted(t)

O(n * n):如果对象既不是可哈希的,也不是可排序的,你可以使用相等:

def compare(s, t):
    t = list(t)   # make a mutable copy
    try:
        for elem in s:
            t.remove(elem)
    except ValueError:
        return False
    return not t

我希望下面的代码可能在你的情况下工作:-

if ((len(a) == len(b)) and
   (all(i in a for i in b))):
    print 'True'
else:
    print 'False'

这将确保两个列表a和b中的所有元素都是相同的,无论它们的顺序是否相同。

为了更好的理解,请参考我对这个问题的回答

代入这个:

def lists_equal(l1: list, l2: list) -> bool:
    """

    import collections
    compare = lambda x, y: collections.Counter(x) == collections.Counter(y)
    ref:
        - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9623114/check-if-two-unordered-lists-are-equal
        - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7828867/how-to-efficiently-compare-two-unordered-lists-not-sets
    """
    compare = lambda x, y: collections.Counter(x) == collections.Counter(y)
    set_comp = set(l1) == set(l2)  # removes duplicates, so returns true when not sometimes :(
    multiset_comp = compare(l1, l2)  # approximates multiset
    return set_comp and multiset_comp  #set_comp is gere in case the compare function doesn't work

如果要在测试上下文中执行比较,则使用assertCountEqual(a, b) (py>=3.2)和assertItemsEqual(a, b) (2.7<=py<3.2)。

也适用于不可哈希对象的序列。

如果列表中包含不可哈希的项(比如对象列表),你可以使用Counter类和id()函数,比如:

from collections import Counter
...
if Counter(map(id,a)) == Counter(map(id,b)):
    print("Lists a and b contain the same objects")
