string中Insert与Format效率对比、String与List中Contains与IndexOf的效率对比

  关于string的效率,众所周知的恐怕是“+”和StringBuilder了,这些本文就不在赘述了。关于本文,请先回答以下问题(假设都是基于多次循环反复调用的情况下):
1.使用Insert与Format方法,哪个效率更高?
2.Contains(value)与IndexOf(value)谁效率更高?


假如您对此2问不感兴趣或已非常了解,请忽略此文。另外本文将不对文中代码的实际用途做任何解释。

 

<一> 首先看以下的使用场景

            string str1 = "abc";
            string str2 = "123";
            str1 = string.Format("{0}:{1}", str1, str2);
            str1 = str1.Insert(0, str2);

接下来开始我们的对比之旅(不包含上述代码),编写如下代码用来向控制台输出结果

        static void WriteTime(string title, long time)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("{1}用时:{0} ms", time, title);
        }

再添加一个方法对字符串进行循环操作

        static long LoopCalc(Action<string, string> action)
        {
            string[] array = new string[260000];            
            for (int i = 0; i < array.Length; i++)
            {
                array[i] = i.ToString();
            }

            Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
            sw.Start();
            for (int i = 0; i < array.Length; i++)
            {
                action(array[i], "bc");
            }

            sw.Stop();
            return sw.ElapsedMilliseconds;
        }

添加对string进行Insert与Format的效率对比代码并在Main方法中调用

        static void StringPlusDemo()
        {
            long inserTime = LoopCalc((x, y) => x.Insert(0, y));
            long formatTime = LoopCalc((x, y) => string.Format("{0}{1}", y, x));
            WriteTime("Insert", inserTime);
            WriteTime("Format", formatTime);
        }

运行结果如下

明显看到Insert效率更高,但是这种结果有局限性,如果字符串很长,那么经过我亲测他们效率相差无几。

注:我这个只是将Format用于字符串拼接的场景,更高的效率应该仍然是StringBuilder,当然Format的其他不可替代用途太多了,Insert和StringBuilder根本无法替代它,这里就不罗嗦了。

 

<二> 依然是先看下Contains与IndexOf的使用场景

            string str1 = "abcd";
            string str2 = "bc";
            if (str1.Contains(str2)) { }
            if (str1.IndexOf(str2) > -1) { }

在这里仍然使用了上述的LoopCalc方法,并增加如下方法,然后在Main方法中调用其

        static void StringContainsDemo()
        {
            long indexOfTime = LoopCalc((x, y) => { if (x.IndexOf(y) >= 0) { } });
            long containersTime = LoopCalc((x, y) => { if (x.Contains(y)) { } });
            WriteTime("Contains", containersTime);
            WriteTime("IndexOf", indexOfTime);
        }

结果

显然Contains效率更高,为什么呢?我之前也不懂为什么,现在来看下String类的源码(关于.NET自带类库的源码可以谷歌搜到官方的下载地址,我忘了地址了),代码很多,我就贴出以下string类中的方法给各位看官

        // Determines the position within this string of the first occurence of the specified
        // string, according to the specified search criteria.  The search begins at
        // the first character of this string, it is case-sensitive and culture-sensitive, 
        // and the default culture is used.
        // 
        public int IndexOf(String value) { 
            return CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this,value);
        } 

        // Determines the position within this string of the first occurence of the specified
        // string, according to the specified search criteria.  The search begins at
        // startIndex, it is case-sensitive and culture-sensitve, and the default culture is used. 
        //
        public int IndexOf(String value, int startIndex) { 
            return CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this,value,startIndex); 
        }
        public bool Contains( string value ) {
            return ( IndexOf(value, StringComparison.Ordinal) >=0 );
        }

以下是有关Contains调用的IndexOf的重载

        public int IndexOf(String value, StringComparison comparisonType) {
            return IndexOf(value, 0, this.Length, comparisonType); 
        }

        public int IndexOf(String value, int startIndex, StringComparison comparisonType) {
            return IndexOf(value, startIndex, this.Length - startIndex, comparisonType); 
        }
 
        public int IndexOf(String value, int startIndex, int count, StringComparison comparisonType) { 
            // Validate inputs
            if (value == null) 
                throw new ArgumentNullException("value");

            if (startIndex < 0 || startIndex > this.Length)
                throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("startIndex", Environment.GetResourceString("ArgumentOutOfRange_Index")); 

            if (count < 0 || startIndex > this.Length - count) 
                throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("count",Environment.GetResourceString("ArgumentOutOfRange_Count")); 

 
            switch (comparisonType) {
                case StringComparison.CurrentCulture:
                    return CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this, value, startIndex, count, CompareOptions.None);
 
                case StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase:
                    return CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this, value, startIndex, count, CompareOptions.IgnoreCase); 
 
                case StringComparison.InvariantCulture:
                    return CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this, value, startIndex, count, CompareOptions.None); 

                case StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase:
                    return CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this, value, startIndex, count, CompareOptions.IgnoreCase);
 
                case StringComparison.Ordinal:
                    return CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.CompareInfo.IndexOf(this, value, startIndex, count, CompareOptions.Ordinal); 
 
                case StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase:
                    return TextInfo.IndexOfStringOrdinalIgnoreCase(this, value, startIndex, count); 

                default:
                    throw new ArgumentException(Environment.GetResourceString("NotSupported_StringComparison"), "comparisonType");
            } 
        }

结论差不多出来了吧,不过这里还牵扯到另一个类CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.CompareInfo,我也看过该类的代码,里头有unsafe代码,不在本文范畴,但是有个结论就是当把我的Demo里的代码的IndexOf改为“x.IndexOf(y, StringComparison.Ordinal)”,那么他们俩的相率将相差无二。

 

这里没有牵扯到正则匹配以及LastIndexOf,其实正则匹配有时可能效率比上述方式更高,但是要视场景使用,更通用的方式还是建议“IndexOf(value, StringComparison.Ordinal)”或“Contains”方法。

string其本身就是char数组的封装,其或多或少体现着Array的一些特点,那么接下来再来看看在List集合中的关于Contains与IndexOf的情况。

 

<三> List的IndexOf方法并没有StringComparison枚举作为参数的方法,直接上代码吧

/// <summary>
        /// 演示string,在contain中还可延伸List类(实际上string就是char的集合)
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="action"></param>
        /// <returns></returns>
        static long LoopCalcList(Action<List<int>, int> action)
        {
            List<int>[] array = new List<int>[260000];
            for (int i = 0; i < array.Length; i++)
            {
                array[i] = new List<int>
                {
                    i,1,2,3,4,5,6
                };
            }

            Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
            sw.Start();
            for (int i = 0; i < array.Length; i++)
            {
                action(array[i], 3);
            }

            sw.Stop();
            return sw.ElapsedMilliseconds;
        }

        static void ListContainsDemo()
        {
            long indexOfTime = LoopCalcList((x, y) => { if (x.IndexOf(y) >= 0) { } });
            long containersTime = LoopCalcList((x, y) => { if (x.Contains(y)) { } });
            WriteTime("Contains", containersTime);
            WriteTime("IndexOf", indexOfTime);
        }
List中的效率对比

运行结果

很显然在判断是否包含时,我们应该坚定不移的使用Contains。

下面再给出List的源码,各位看官自行分析了,对此不做深入研究

        // Contains returns true if the specified element is in the List.
        // It does a linear, O(n) search.  Equality is determined by calling 
        // item.Equals().
        // 
        public bool Contains(T item) { 
            if ((Object) item == null) {
                for(int i=0; i<_size; i++) 
                    if ((Object) _items[i] == null)
                        return true;
                return false;
            } 
            else {
                EqualityComparer<T> c = EqualityComparer<T>.Default; 
                for(int i=0; i<_size; i++) { 
                    if (c.Equals(_items[i], item)) return true;
                } 
                return false;
            }
        }
List类的Contains方法

 

        // Returns the index of the first occurrence of a given value in a range of
        // this list. The list is searched forwards from beginning to end. 
        // The elements of the list are compared to the given value using the
        // Object.Equals method. 
        // 
        // This method uses the Array.IndexOf method to perform the
        // search. 
        //
        public int IndexOf(T item) {
            return Array.IndexOf(_items, item, 0, _size);
        } 

        int System.Collections.IList.IndexOf(Object item) 
        { 
            if(IsCompatibleObject(item)) {
                return IndexOf((T)item); 
            }
            return -1;
        }
 
        // Returns the index of the first occurrence of a given value in a range of
        // this list. The list is searched forwards, starting at index 
        // index and ending at count number of elements. The 
        // elements of the list are compared to the given value using the
        // Object.Equals method. 
        //
        // This method uses the Array.IndexOf method to perform the
        // search.
        // 
        public int IndexOf(T item, int index) {
            if (index > _size) 
                ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentOutOfRangeException(ExceptionArgument.index, ExceptionResource.ArgumentOutOfRange_Index); 
            return Array.IndexOf(_items, item, index, _size - index);
        } 

        // Returns the index of the first occurrence of a given value in a range of
        // this list. The list is searched forwards, starting at index
        // index and upto count number of elements. The 
        // elements of the list are compared to the given value using the
        // Object.Equals method. 
        // 
        // This method uses the Array.IndexOf method to perform the
        // search. 
        //
        public int IndexOf(T item, int index, int count) {
            if (index > _size)
                ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentOutOfRangeException(ExceptionArgument.index, ExceptionResource.ArgumentOutOfRange_Index); 

            if (count <0 || index > _size - count) ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentOutOfRangeException(ExceptionArgument.count, ExceptionResource.ArgumentOutOfRange_Count); 
 
            return Array.IndexOf(_items, item, index, count);
        } 
List类的IndexOf方法

 

总结:

  1.这点效率问题对于某些人来说可能无所谓,但是我觉得更重要的是编码习惯的养成问题。

  2.能用Contains的地方还是尽量使用Contains(发现我改的代码中有不少同事直接用了"IndexOf(value)"),当然会有特殊的例外场景,这里不罗嗦。
  3.关于Insert,我编写了两个扩展方法,如下(方法虽简单,但是给代码带来了更大的优雅性)

        public static string InsertLast(this string source, string str)
        {
            return source.Insert(source.Length, str);
        }

        public static string InsertFirst(this string source, string str)
        {
            return source.Insert(0, str);
        }
