python list tuple dict,在Python中将元组列表转换为Dict

I have a list of tuples like this:

[

('a', 1),

('a', 2),

('a', 3),

('b', 1),

('b', 2),

('c', 1),

]

I want to iterate through this keying by the first item, so for example I could print something like this:

a 1 2 3

b 1 2

c 1

How would I go about doing this without keeping an item to track whether the first item is the same as I loop round the tuples. This feels rather messy (plus I have to sort the list to start with)...

Thanks,

Dan

解决方案l = [

('a', 1),

('a', 2),

('a', 3),

('b', 1),

('b', 2),

('c', 1),

]

d = {}

for x, y in l:

d.setdefault(x, []).append(y)

print d

produces:

{'a': [1, 2, 3], 'c': [1], 'b': [1, 2]}
