我已经阅读了python文档中的示例，但仍然不明白这个方法是什么意思。有人能帮帮我吗?下面是python文档中的两个例子
>>> from collections import defaultdict
>>> s = 'mississippi'
>>> d = defaultdict(int)
>>> for k in s:
... d[k] += 1
...
>>> d.items()
[('i', 4), ('p', 2), ('s', 4), ('m', 1)]
and
>>> s = [('yellow', 1), ('blue', 2), ('yellow', 3), ('blue', 4), ('red', 1)]
>>> d = defaultdict(list)
>>> for k, v in s:
... d[k].append(v)
...
>>> d.items()
[('blue', [2, 4]), ('red', [1]), ('yellow', [1, 3])]
参数int和list是干什么用的?

如果没有defaultdict，您可能可以为不可见的键分配新值，但不能修改它。例如:
import collections
d = collections.defaultdict(int)
for i in range(10):
d[i] += i
print(d)
# Output: defaultdict(<class 'int'>, {0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 3, 4: 4, 5: 5, 6: 6, 7: 7, 8: 8, 9: 9})
import collections
d = {}
for i in range(10):
d[i] += i
print(d)
# Output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "python", line 4, in <module> KeyError: 0

Usually, a Python dictionary throws a KeyError if you try to get an item with a key that is not currently in the dictionary. The defaultdict in contrast will simply create any items that you try to access (provided of course they do not exist yet). To create such a "default" item, it calls the function object that you pass to the constructor (more precisely, it's an arbitrary "callable" object, which includes function and type objects). For the first example, default items are created using int(), which will return the integer object 0. For the second example, default items are created using list(), which returns a new empty list object.
#dictinary and defaultdict
normaldictionary=dict()
print(type(normaldictionary))
#print(normaldictionary["keynotexisit"])
#Above normal dictionary give an error as key not present
from collections import defaultdict
defaultdict1=defaultdict()
print(type(defaultdict1))
#print(defaultdict1['keynotexisit'])

defaultdict意味着如果在字典中没有找到一个键，那么不会抛出KeyError，而是创建一个新条目。这个新条目的类型由defaultdict的参数给出。
例如:
somedict = {}
print(somedict[3]) # KeyError
someddict = defaultdict(int)
print(someddict[3]) # print int(), thus 0
标准字典包含setdefault()方法，用于检索值并在值不存在时建立默认值。相反，defaultdict允许调用者在容器初始化时预先指定默认值。
import collections
def default_factory():
return 'default value'
d = collections.defaultdict(default_factory, foo='bar')
print 'd:', d
print 'foo =>', d['foo']
print 'bar =>', d['bar']
只要所有键都具有相同的默认值，这种方法就可以很好地工作。如果默认值是用于聚合或累积值的类型，例如列表、集合甚至int，那么它会特别有用。标准库文档包含了以这种方式使用defaultdict的几个示例。
$ python collections_defaultdict.py
d: defaultdict(<function default_factory at 0x100468c80>, {'foo': 'bar'})
foo => bar
bar => default value
如果没有defaultdict，您可能可以为不可见的键分配新值，但不能修改它。例如:
import collections
d = collections.defaultdict(int)
for i in range(10):
d[i] += i
print(d)
# Output: defaultdict(<class 'int'>, {0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 3, 4: 4, 5: 5, 6: 6, 7: 7, 8: 8, 9: 9})
import collections
d = {}
for i in range(10):
d[i] += i
print(d)
# Output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "python", line 4, in <module> KeyError: 0
