'Hello'
str.replace()

序列处理函数：

filter()
filter(...)
filter(function or None, sequence) -> list, tuple, or string
Return those items of sequence for which function(item) is true. If
function is None, return the items that are true. If sequence is a tuple
or string, return the same type, else return a list.
>>> filter(None,range(10))
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
>>> def f(x):
... if x % 2 == 0:
... return True
...
>>> filter(f,range(10))
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8]
>>> filter(lambda x: x%2==0,range(10))
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8]
zip()
zip(...)
zip(seq1 [, seq2 [...]]) -> [(seq1[0], seq2[0] ...), (...)]
Return a list of tuples, where each tuple contains the i-th element
from each of the argument sequences. The returned list is truncated
in length to the length of the shortest argument sequence.
>>> a1 = [1,3,4]
>>> a2 = ['a','b','c']
>>> zip(a1,a2)
[(1, 'a'), (3, 'b'), (4, 'c')]
>>> dict(zip(a1,a2))
{1: 'a', 3: 'b', 4: 'c'}
>>> dict(zip(a2,a1))
{'a': 1, 'c': 4, 'b': 3}
>>> a3 = ['x','y','z']
>>> zip(a1,a2,a3)
[(1, 'a', 'x'), (3, 'b', 'y'), (4, 'c', 'z')]
>>> zip(a1,a3)
[(1, 'x'), (3, 'y'), (4, 'z')]
>>> a3 = ['x','y']

[(1, 'x'), (3, 'y')]
>>> zip(a1,a2,a3)
[(1, 'a', 'x'), (3, 'b', 'y')]
map()
map(...)
map(function, sequence[, sequence, ...]) -> list
Return a list of the results of applying the function to the items of
the argument sequence(s). If more than one sequence is given, the
function is called with an argument list consisting of the corresponding
item of each sequence, substituting None for missing values when not all
sequences have the same length. If the function is None, return a list of
the items of the sequence (or a list of tuples if more than one sequence).
参数有几个，函数里的参数也应该对应有几个
>>> map(None,a1,a2,a3)
[(1, 'a', 'x'), (3, 'b', 'y'), (4, 'c', None)]
>>> def f(x):
... return x**2
...
>>> map(f,a1)
[1, 9, 16]
>>> a1
[1, 3, 4]
>>> a1
[1, 3, 4]
>>> a2
[2, 5, 6]
>>> def f(x,y):
... return x*y
...
>>> map(f,a1,a2)
[2, 15, 24]
>>> map(lambda x,y: x*y ,range(1,10),range(1,10))
[1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
reduce()
reduce(...)
reduce(function, sequence[, initial]) -> value
Apply a function of two arguments cumulatively to the items of a sequence,
from left to right, so as to reduce the sequence to a single value.
For example, reduce(lambda x, y: x+y, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) calculates
((((1+2)+3)+4)+5). If initial is present, it is placed before the items
of the sequence in the calculation, and serves as a default when the
sequence is empty.
>>> def f(x,y):
... return x + y
...
>>> reduce(f,range(1,101))
5050
列表表达式：
[i*2 for i in range(10)]
>>> [i*2 for i in range(10)]
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18]
>>> [i*2+10 for i in range(10)]
[10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28]
[i*2+10 for i in range(10) if i%3 == 0]
>>> [i*2+10 for i in range(10) if i%3 == 0]
[10, 16, 22, 28]
