Jul 15, 2017 · In the OrderedDict case, you are creating an intermediate, regular (and hence unordered) dictionary before it gets passed to the constructor. In order to keep the order, you will either have to …

Dec 16, 2015 · The OrderedDict was designed to be good at reordering operations. Space efficiency, iteration speed, and the performance of update operations were secondary. Algorithmically, …

I am having some trouble using the collections.OrderedDict class. I am using Python 2.7 on Raspbian, the Debian distro for Raspberry Pi. I am trying to print two dictionaries in order for comparison (

Therefore, once you convert an OrderedDict (combination of a basic dict and a list to preserve order) to a dict, you lose any order information. Furthermore, the repr method is supposed to return a string …

There's no built-in method for doing this in Python 2. If you need this, you need to write a prepend() method/function that operates on the OrderedDict internals with O (1) complexity. For Python 3.2 and …

OrderedDict([('r', 1), ('s', 1), ('a', 1), (('y', 'n'), '2')]) I would like now to iterate over the elements, each time taking the last three and deciding based on the lower sum of the values what is the union object.

The class OrderedDict uses a doubly linked list for the dictionary items and implements __reversed__(), so this implementation gives you O (1) access to the desired element. Whether it is worthwhile to …
