python 关联数组,如何在Python中实现关联数组（而不是字典）？

I trying to print out a dictionary in Python:

Dictionary = {"Forename":"Paul","Surname":"Dinh"}

for Key,Value in Dictionary.iteritems():

print Key,"=",Value

Although the item "Forename" is listed first, but dictionaries in Python seem to be sorted by values, so the result is like this:

Surname = Dinh

Forename = Paul

How to print out these with the same order in code or the order when items are appended in (not sorted by values nor by keys)?

解决方案

You can use a list of tuples (or list of lists). Like this:

Arr= [("Forename","Paul"),("Surname","Dinh")]

for Key,Value in Arr:

print Key,"=",Value

Forename = Paul

Surname = Dinh

you can make a dictionary out of this with:

Dictionary=dict(Arr)

And the correctly sorted keys like this:

keys = [k for k,v in Arr]

Then do this:

for k in keys: print k,Dictionary[k]

but I agree with the comments on your question: Would it not be easy to sort the keys in the required order when looping instead?

EDIT: (thank you Rik Poggi), OrderedDict does this for you:

od=collections.OrderedDict(Arr)

for k in od: print k,od[k]
