来自 sys.getrefcount 的意外结果

问题描述

当我输入时:

>>> astrd = 123
>>> import sys
>>> sys.getrefcount(astrd)
3
>>> 

我不知道 astrd 在哪里使用了 3 次?

I am not getting where is astrd used 3 times ?


解决方案

被引用3次的不是astrd,而是值123.astrd 只是(不可变)数字 123 的名称,可以多次引用.除此之外,通常共享小整数:

It's not astrd that is referenced three times, but the value 123. astrd is simply a name for the (immutable) number 123, which can be referenced however many times. Additionally to that, small integers are usually shared:

>>> astrd = 123
>>> sys.getrefcount(astrd)
4
>>> j = 123
>>> sys.getrefcount(astrd)
5

在第二个赋值中,没有创建新的整数,而是 j 只是整数 123 的新名称.

In the second assignment, no new integer is created, instead j is just a new name for the integer 123.

但是,给定非常大的整数,这不成立:

However, given very large integers, this does not hold:

>>> i = 823423442583
>>> sys.getrefcount(i)
2
>>> j = 823423442583
>>> sys.getrefcount(i)
2

共享整数是 CPython(以及其他)的一个实现细节.由于小整数经常被实例化,共享它们可以节省大量内存.这是因为整数是不可变的.

Shared integers are an implementation detail of CPython (among others). Since small integers are instantiated very often, sharing them saves a lot of memory. This is made possible by the fact that integers are immutable in the first place.
