一直有个疑惑：jieba中的lcut()方法中的“l”代表什么意思？

[paradise321]

看代码也没能看明白，是取自指从左到右的“Left”吗？谢谢！

The l in lcut() means list.

jieba.lcut() returns a list, while jieba.cut() returns a generator. You can run following code.

import jieba

text = "我喜欢使用jieba进行中文分词"
result_cut = jieba.cut(text)
result_lcut = jieba.lcut(text)

print(type(result_cut), type(result_lcut))

print(list(result_cut), result_lcut)

Output:

<class 'generator'> <class 'list'>
['我', '喜欢', '使用', 'jieba', '进行', '中文', '分词']['我', '喜欢', '使用', 'jieba', '进行', '中文', '分词']

Also, you can find this in source code:

def lcut(self, *args, **kwargs):
    return list(self.cut(*args, **kwargs))
