Hi all!
I am pretty sure this has been asked a couple of times, but I don't seem
to find it on the archives (Google seems to have a couple of problems
lately).
I am wondering what is the most pythonic way of dealing with missing
keys and default values.
According to my readings one can take the following approaches:
1/ check before (this has a specific name and acronym that I haven't
learnt yet by heart)
if not my_dict.has_key(key):
my_obj = myobject()
my_dict[key] = my_obj
else:
my_obj = my_dict[key]
2/ try and react on error (this has also a specific name, but...)
try:
my_obj = my_dict[key]
except AttributeError:
my_obj = myobject()
my_dict[key] = my_obj
3/ dict.get usage:
my_obj = my_dict.get(key, myobject())
I am wondering which one is the most recommended way? get usage seems
the clearest, but the only problem I see is that I think myobject() is
evaluated at call time, and so if the initialization is expensive you
will probably see surprises.
thanks in advance,

Version 1 and 2 do different thing than version 3. The latter doesn't
add value to dict.
As it was mentioned before, use:

[snip three versions]
Others have already mentioned the collections.defaultdict type, however it
seems people have forgotten about the setdefault method of dictionaries.
value = somedict.setdefault(key, defaultvalue)
The disadvantage of setdefault is that the defaultvalue has to be created
up front. The disadvantage of collections.defaultdict is that the "default
factory" function takes no arguments, which makes it rather less than
convenient. One can work around this using global variables:
# The default value is expensive to calculate, and known
# only at runtime.
>>expensivefunction = lambda x: str(x) D = collections.defaultdict(lambda : expensivefunction(context))
# lots of code goes here...
# set context just before fetching from the default dict
>>context = 42 value = D['key'] print value, D
42 defaultdict(<function <lambdaat 0xb7eb4fb4>, {'key': '42'})
but one should be very leery of relying on global variables like that.
That suggests the best solution is something like this:
def getdefault(adict, key, expensivefunction, context):
if key in adict:
return adict[key]
else:
value = expensivefunction(context)
adict[key] = value
return value

I won't claim to know Python internals, but compiling and disassembling the
expressions in question reveals the reason:
>>from compiler import compile from dis import dis dis(compile("dic.has_key(x)","","eval"))
1 0 LOAD_NAME 0 (dic)
3 LOAD_ATTR 1 (has_key)
6 LOAD_NAME 2 (x)

12 RETURN_VALUE
>>dis(compile("x in dic","","eval"))
1 0 LOAD_NAME 0 (x)
3 LOAD_NAME 1 (dic)
6 COMPARE_OP 6 (in)
9 RETURN_VALUE
"dic.has_key(x)" goes through an attribute lookup to find the function that
looks for the key. "x in dic" finds the function more directly.

cf above for a shortcut...
3/ dict.get usage:
my_obj = my_dict.get(key, myobject())
Note that this last one won't have the same result, since it won't store
my_obj under my_dict[key]. You'd have to use dict.setdefault :
my_obj = my_dict.setdefault(key, myobject())
I am wondering which one is the most recommended way?
It depends on the context. wrt/ 1 and 2, use 1 if you expect that most
of the time, my_dict[key] will not be set, and 2 if you expect that most
of the time, my_dict[key] will be set.
get usage seems
the clearest, but the only problem I see is that I think myobject() is
evaluated at call time,
Myobject will be instanciated each time, yes.
and so if the initialization is expensive you
will probably see surprises.
No "surprise" here, but it can indeed be suboptimal if instanciating
myobject is costly.

Yup, it's mostly that, as microbenchmarking can confirm:
brain:~ alex$ python -mtimeit -s'd={}; f=d.has_key' 'f(23)'
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.146 usec per loop

10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.142 usec per loop
brain:~ alex$ python -mtimeit -s'd={}; f=d.has_key' 'f(23)'
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.146 usec per loop
brain:~ alex$ python -mtimeit -s'd={}; f=d.has_key' '23 in d'
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.142 usec per loop
brain:~ alex$ python -mtimeit -s'd={}; f=d.has_key' 'd.has_key(23)'
1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.278 usec per loop
brain:~ alex$ python -mtimeit -s'd={}; f=d.has_key' 'd.has_key(23)'
1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.275 usec per loop
the in operator still appears to have a tiny repeatable advantage (about
4 nanoseconds on my laptop) wrt even the hoisted method, but the
non-hoisted method, due to repeated lookup, is almost twice as slow
(over 100 nanoseconds penalty, on my laptop).

Thanks. I think to make the 3rd approach completely equivalent I should
have been using d.setdefault(key, myojbect()).

Some special methods are optimised by having a reserved slot in the data
structure used to implement a class. The 'in' operator uses one of these
slots so it can bypass all the overheads of looking up an attribute such as
'has_key'.

Reduces the unnecessary instantiation of `myobject` to "false" objects.

Your sentence seems to have run out early :)
Thanks, I didn't know that -- I remember that Back In The Day checking if
something was callable was tricky, because it could be a function, a
method, or a class with __call__. It makes much more sense to make all
callables go through __call__.

True. But writing the same basic algorithm over and over again is about as
far from best practice as you can get without being a PHP programmer.
*wink* Currying is easy to do too, but Python has grown a function
functools.partial() to do it properly. That's as it should be.
(Yes, I know that's a misuse of the term currying, but it's a common one,
and easier than saying "Making a partial function".)

Oh, I would have no problem at all with reduce being banished to the
functtools module. But it's a shame to have to go through the whole PEP
process, and risk Guido saying no.

Indeed.
The 'correct' replacement would be:
if hasattr(obj, '__call__'):
# it's a callable
but I don't find it so Pythonic to have to check for a __magic__ method.
>>Also, what is the replacement of reduce? I think I remember seeing somewhere that lists comprehension would be (but also remember the advise that reduce will be quicker).
No, a list comprehension isn't equivalent to reduce(). There is no
replacement for reduce().
Guido has essentially done the functional equivalent of deciding that
because he personally doesn't like for loops, they can and should be
written out as:
counter = 0
while counter < len(sequence):
item = sequence[counter]
do_something_with_item
counter += 1
because it is "easier to read" than a for loop.
And yes, if you think my example is extreme because nobody would be that
stupid, that's the point: removing reduce() _is_ that stupid (and it is
not often I say that about a language design decision by Guido!). Python
can, and probably will, get away with it only because reducing an iterable
to a single value is an uncommon operation, and the most common uses of it
(summing a sequence, finding the minimum and maximum) already have
workable replacements.
It's especially stupid because map() and filter(), both of which do have
simple, easy to understand, completely functional replacements, are going
to stay. reduce() doesn't, and it is going. That's nuts.

Indeed.
The 'correct' replacement would be:
if hasattr(obj, '__call__'):
# it's a callable
but I don't find it so Pythonic to have to check for a __magic__
method.
It looks like Python devs have decided it is Pythonic, because it is
already in the PEP. Same for execfile and the others. And I am not
arguing pro or con. I was just wondering about the reasons, as I haven't
been able to find anything (neither here nor on the dev group).

I do know, and I disagree with this decision.
FWIW, repr(obj) is mostly syntactic sugar for obj.__repr__(),
getattr(obj, name) for obj.__getattr__(name), type(obj) for
obj.__class__ etc... IOW, we do have a lot of builtin functions that
mostly encapsulate calls to __magic__ methods, and I definitively don't

Yes, true. But it doesn't make such a big difference IMHO : it's about
decoupling API (the builtin funcs) from implementation (accessing |
calling | checking for the presence of a given implementation attribute).

This PEP sounds very similar to Java interfaces (well, as an enhanced
version as you are allowed to programmatically control this inheritance
chain). Interesting approach. And now I can agree that the removal of
callable() makes sense!
