# 9.9. `operator` — 标准运算符替代函数

The `operator` module exports a set of efficient functions corresponding to the intrinsic operators of Python. For example, `operator.add(x, y)` is equivalent to the expression `x+y`. The function names are those used for special class methods; variants without leading and trailing `__` are also provided for convenience.

The functions fall into categories that perform object comparisons, logical operations, mathematical operations, sequence operations, and abstract type tests.

对象比较函数适用于所有的对象，函数名根据它们对应的比较运算符命名。

`operator.``lt`(a, b)
`operator.``le`(a, b)
`operator.``eq`(a, b)
`operator.``ne`(a, b)
`operator.``ge`(a, b)
`operator.``gt`(a, b)
`operator.``__lt__`(a, b)
`operator.``__le__`(a, b)
`operator.``__eq__`(a, b)
`operator.``__ne__`(a, b)
`operator.``__ge__`(a, b)
`operator.``__gt__`(a, b)

  Perform “rich comparisons” between a and b. Specifically, `lt(a, b)` is equivalent to `a < b`, `le(a, b)` is equivalent to `a <= b`, `eq(a, b)` is equivalent to `a == b`, `ne(a, b)` is equivalent to `a != b`, `gt(a, b)` is equivalent to `a > b` and `ge(a, b)` is equivalent to `a >= b`. Note that unlike the built-in `cmp()`, these functions can return any value, which may or may not be interpretable as a Boolean value. See 比较运算 for more information about rich comparisons.

逻辑运算通常也适用于所有对象，并且支持真值检测、标识检测和布尔运算：

`operator.``not_`(obj)
`operator.``__not__`(obj)

  Return the outcome of `not` obj. (Note that there is no `__not__()` method for object instances; only the interpreter core defines this operation. The result is affected by the `__nonzero__()` and `__len__()` methods.)

`operator.``truth`(obj)

  如果 obj 为真值则返回 `True`，否则返回 `False`。 这等价于使用 `bool` 构造器。

Many operations have an “in-place” version. The following functions provide a more primitive access to in-place operators than the usual syntax does; for example, the statement `x += y` is equivalent to `x = operator.iadd(x, y)`.

The `operator` module also defines a few predicates to test the type of objects; however, these are not all reliable. It is preferable to test abstract base classes instead (see `collections` and `numbers` for details).

`operator.``isCallable`(obj)

  2.0 版后已移除: Use `isinstance(x, collections.Callable)` instead.

  Returns true if the object obj can be called like a function, otherwise it returns false. True is returned for functions, bound and unbound methods, class objects, and instance objects which support the `__call__()` method.

`operator.``isMappingType`(obj)

  2.7 版后已移除: Use `isinstance(x, collections.Mapping)` instead.

  Returns true if the object obj supports the mapping interface. This is true for dictionaries and all instance objects defining `__getitem__()`.

`operator.``isNumberType`(obj)

  2.7 版后已移除: Use `isinstance(x, numbers.Number)` instead.

  Returns true if the object obj represents a number. This is true for all numeric types implemented in C.

`operator.``isSequenceType`(obj)

  2.7 版后已移除: Use `isinstance(x, collections.Sequence)` instead.

  Returns true if the object obj supports the sequence protocol. This returns true for all objects which define sequence methods in C, and for all instance objects defining `__getitem__()`.

`operator` 模块还定义了一些用于常规属性和条目查找的工具。 这些工具适合用来编写快速字段提取器作为 `map()`, `sorted()`, `itertools.groupby()` 或其他需要相应函数参数的函数的参数。

`operator.``attrgetter`(attr)
`operator.``attrgetter`(*attrs)

  返回一个可从操作数中获取 attr 的可调用对象。 如果请求了一个以上的属性，则返回一个属性元组。 属性名称还可包含点号。 例如：

  - 在 `f = attrgetter('name')` 之后，调用 `f(b)` 将返回 `b.name`。

  - 在 `f = attrgetter('name', 'date')` 之后，调用 `f(b)` 将返回 `(b.name, b.date)`。

  - 在 `f = attrgetter('name.first', 'name.last')` 之后，调用 `f(b)` 将返回 `(b.name.first, b.name.last)`。

  等价于:

      def attrgetter(*items):
          if len(items) == 1:
              attr = items[0]
              def g(obj):
                  return resolve_attr(obj, attr)
          else:
              def g(obj):
                  return tuple(resolve_attr(obj, attr) for attr in items)
          return g

      def resolve_attr(obj, attr):
          for name in attr.split("."):
              obj = getattr(obj, name)
          return obj

  2.4 新版功能.

  在 2.5 版更改: Added support for multiple attributes.

  在 2.6 版更改: Added support for dotted attributes.

`operator.``itemgetter`(item)
`operator.``itemgetter`(*items)

  返回一个使用操作数的 `__getitem__()` 方法从操作数中获取 item 的可调用对象。 如果指定了多个条目，则返回一个查找值的元组。 例如：

  - 在 `f = itemgetter(2)` 之后，调用 `f(r)` 将返回 `r[2]`。

  - 在 `g = itemgetter(2, 5, 3)` 之后，调用 `g(r)` 将返回 `(r[2], r[5], r[3])`。

  等价于:

      def itemgetter(*items):
          if len(items) == 1:
              item = items[0]
              def g(obj):
                  return obj[item]
          else:
              def g(obj):
                  return tuple(obj[item] for item in items)
          return g

  传入的条目可以为操作数的 `__getitem__()` 所接受的任何类型。 字典接受任意可哈希的值。 列表、元组和字符串接受 index 或 slice 对象：

      >>> itemgetter(1)('ABCDEFG')
      'B'
      >>> itemgetter(1,3,5)('ABCDEFG')
      ('B', 'D', 'F')
      >>> itemgetter(slice(2,None))('ABCDEFG')
      'CDEFG'

  2.4 新版功能.

  在 2.5 版更改: Added support for multiple item extraction.

  使用 `itemgetter()` 从元组的记录中提取特定字段的例子：

      >>> inventory = [('apple', 3), ('banana', 2), ('pear', 5), ('orange', 1)]
      >>> getcount = itemgetter(1)
      >>> map(getcount, inventory)
      [3, 2, 5, 1]
      >>> sorted(inventory, key=getcount)
      [('orange', 1), ('banana', 2), ('apple', 3), ('pear', 5)]

`operator.``methodcaller`(name[, args...])

  返回一个在操作数上调用 name 方法的可调用对象。 如果给出额外的参数和/或关键字参数，它们也将被传给该方法。 例如：

  - 在 `f = methodcaller('name')` 之后，调用 `f(b)` 将返回 `b.name()`。

  - 在 `f = methodcaller('name', 'foo', bar=1)` 之后，调用 `f(b)` 将返回 `b.name('foo', bar=1)`。

  等价于:

      def methodcaller(name, *args, **kwargs):
          def caller(obj):
              return getattr(obj, name)(*args, **kwargs)
          return caller
