为什么不能用“is”来比较数字？

可能重复：
Python “is” operator behaves unexpectedly with integers 为什么不能用“is”来比较数字？

我通常使用type(x) == type(y)进行比较，如果类型相同。然后使用x==y来比较数值是否相等。

但是，有人提议可以只使用z1 is z2来比较z1和z2是否包含具有完全相同值的相同类型的数字。在很多情况下，它会成功（特别是对于正面整数）。

但是，有时相同的数字（主要是负整数）可能有几个不同的实例。这是python的预期行为吗？

例如：

>>> for x in range(-20,125): 
    z1=x 
    z2=int(float(x)) 
    if z1 is not z2: 
     print "z1({z1}; type = {typez1}; id={idz1}) is not z2({z2}; type = {typez2}; id={idz2})".format(z1=z1,typez1=type(z1),idz1=id(z1),z2=z2,typez2=type(z2),idz2=id(z2)) 


z1(-20; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869592) is not z2(-20; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-19; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870480) is not z2(-19; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-18; type = <type 'int'>; id=32981032) is not z2(-18; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-17; type = <type 'int'>; id=33871368) is not z2(-17; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-16; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869712) is not z2(-16; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-15; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869736) is not z2(-15; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-14; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869856) is not z2(-14; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-13; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869280) is not z2(-13; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-12; type = <type 'int'>; id=33868464) is not z2(-12; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-11; type = <type 'int'>; id=33868488) is not z2(-11; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-10; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869616) is not z2(-10; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-9; type = <type 'int'>; id=33871344) is not z2(-9; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-8; type = <type 'int'>; id=33869064) is not z2(-8; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384) 
z1(-7; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870336) is not z2(-7; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870408) 
z1(-6; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870360) is not z2(-6; type = <type 'int'>; id=33870384)

谁提出的？他们应该被打了。 – delnan 2012-07-23 18:43:04

对于一小部分整数，这是真实的（在CPython中）。不应该依赖这种行为，因为它不能保证在python实现中是相同的。 – 2012-07-23 18:56:16
