如何获得所有Python类型的列表(以编程方式)？

Question

在最近的一个问题中讨论,min/max()需要对象具有可比性,让我想知道如何找到哪些Python类型支持特定方法(__cmp__或者可能__lt__- 具体不重要).

对此,关键似乎是能够获得所有类型的列表.然后我可以简单检查一下hasattr(thisType, '__cmp__').那么我如何枚举所有数据类型呢？

Answer 1

>>> import __builtin__
>>> builtin_types= [t
...  for t in __builtin__.__dict__.itervalues()
...  if isinstance(t, type)]

>>> import pprint
>>> pprint.pprint(sorted(builtin_types, key=repr))
[<type 'basestring'>,

Answer 2

@tzot 答案不适用于 python 3.x，因为__builtin__模块已更改名称和结构。您现在应该使用builtin模块。

try :
    import __builtin__
except: 
    # Python 3.x
    import builtins

try : 
    builtin_types = [t for t in __builtin__.__dict__.itervalues() if isinstance(t, type)]
except:
    builtin_types = [getattr(builtins, d) for d in dir(builtins) if isinstance(getattr(builtins, d), type)]

现在使用 Python 3.x ：

>>> from pprint import pprint 
>>> pprint(builtin_types)
[<class 'ArithmeticError'>,
 <class 'AssertionError'>,
 <class 'AttributeError'>,
 <class 'BaseException'>,
 <class 'BlockingIOError'>,

 <class 'ProcessLookupError'>,
 <class 'RecursionError'>,
 <class 'ReferenceError'>,
 <class 'ResourceWarning'>,
 <class 'RuntimeError'>,
 <class 'RuntimeWarning'>,
 <class 'StopAsyncIteration'>,
 <class 'StopIteration'>,
 <class 'SyntaxError'>,
 <class 'SyntaxWarning'>,
 <class 'SystemError'>,
 <class 'SystemExit'>,
 <class 'TabError'>,
 <class 'TimeoutError'>,
 <class 'TypeError'>,
 <class 'UnboundLocalError'>,
 <class 'UnicodeDecodeError'>,
 <class 'UnicodeEncodeError'>,
 <class 'UnicodeError'>,
 <class 'UnicodeTranslateError'>,
 <class 'UnicodeWarning'>,
 <class 'UserWarning'>,
 <class 'ValueError'>,
 <class 'Warning'>,
 <class 'OSError'>,
 <class 'ZeroDivisionError'>,
 <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>,
 <class 'bool'>,
 <class 'bytearray'>,
 <class 'bytes'>,
 <class 'classmethod'>,
 <class 'complex'>,
 <class 'dict'>,
 <class 'enumerate'>,
 <class 'filter'>,
 <class 'float'>,
 <class 'frozenset'>,
 <class 'int'>,
 <class 'list'>,
 <class 'map'>,
 <class 'memoryview'>,
 <class 'object'>,
 <class 'property'>,
 <class 'range'>,
 <class 'reversed'>,
 <class 'set'>,
 <class 'slice'>,
 <class 'staticmethod'>,
 <class 'str'>,
 <class 'super'>,
 <class 'tuple'>,
 <class 'type'>,
 <class 'zip'>]

你可以这样做：

>>> a = "foo"
>>> type(a) in builtin_types 
True
