通常情况下，不得不从其他CAD程序产生的文本或HTML文件来解析输入,这是个是单调乏味的工作，而通过以Python字典的形式提供理想的输入。 （有时用于解析输入文件的代码可以跟排名算法一样大或着更大）。
让我们假设每个ISG测试都有一个名称，在确定的“时间”内运行，当模拟显示'覆盖'设计中的 一组编号的特性时。解析之后，所收集的输入数据由程序中的结果字典来表示。

}贪婪排名算法的核心是对当前选择测试的子集进行排序：
至少用一个测试集覆盖尽可能大的范围。
经过第一个步骤，逐步减少测试集，同时覆盖尽可能大的范围。
给选择的测试做出一个排序，这样小数据集的测试也可以选择使用
完成上述排序后，接下来就可以优化算法的执行时间了
当然，他需要能在很大的测试集下工作。
贪婪排名算法的工作原理就是先选择当前测试集的某一项的最优解，然后寻找下一项的最优解，依次进行...
如果有两个以上的算法得出相同的执行结果，那么将以执行”时间“来比较两种算法优劣。
用下面的函数完成的算法：
def greedyranker(results): results = results.copy() ranked, coveredsofar, costsofar, round = [], set(), 0, 0 noncontributing = [] while results: round += 1 # What each test can contribute to the pool of what is covered so far contributions = [(len(cover - coveredsofar), -cost, test) for test, (cost, cover) in sorted(results.items()) ] # Greedy ranking by taking the next greatest contributor delta_cover, benefit, test = max( contributions ) if delta_cover > 0: ranked.append((test, delta_cover)) cost, cover = results.pop(test) coveredsofar.update(cover) costsofar += cost for delta_cover, benefit, test in contributions: if delta_cover == 0: # this test cannot contribute anything noncontributing.append( (test, round) ) results.pop(test) return coveredsofar, ranked, costsofar, noncontributing
每次while循环（第5行），下一个最好的测试会被追加到排名和测试，不会 丢弃贡献的任何额外覆盖（37-41行）
上面的函数是略显简单，所以我花了一点时间用tutor来标注，当运行时打印出它做的。
函数（有指导）：
它完成同样的事情，但代码量更大，太繁冗:
def greedyranker(results, tutor=True):
results = results.copy()
ranked, coveredsofar, costsofar, round = [], set(), 0, 0
noncontributing = []
while results:
round += 1
# What each test can contribute to the pool of what is covered so far
contributions = [(len(cover - coveredsofar), -cost, test)
for test, (cost, cover) in sorted(results.items()) ]
if tutor:
print('\n## Round %i' % round)
print(' Covered so far: %2i points: ' % len(coveredsofar))
print(' Ranked so far: ' + repr([t for t, d in ranked]))
print(' What the remaining tests can contribute, largest contributors first:')
print(' # DELTA, BENEFIT, TEST')
deltas = sorted(contributions, reverse=True)
for delta_cover, benefit, test in deltas:
print(' %2i, %7.2f, %s' % (delta_cover, benefit, test))
if len(deltas)>=2 and deltas[0][0] == deltas[1][0]:
print(' Note: This time around, more than one test gives the same')
print(' maximum delta contribution of %i to the coverage so far'
% deltas[0][0])
if deltas[0][1] != deltas[1][1]:
print(' we order based on the next field of minimum cost')
print(' (equivalent to maximum negative cost).')
else:
print(' the next field of minimum cost is the same so')
print(' we arbitrarily order by test name.')
zeroes = [test for delta_cover, benefit, test in deltas
if delta_cover == 0]
if zeroes:
print(' The following test(s) cannot contribute more to coverage')
print(' and will be dropped:')
print(' ' + ', '.join(zeroes))
# Greedy ranking by taking the next greatest contributor
delta_cover, benefit, test = max( contributions )
if delta_cover > 0:
ranked.append((test, delta_cover))
cost, cover = results.pop(test)
if tutor:
print(' Ranking %s in round %2i giving extra coverage of: %r'
% (test, round, sorted(cover - coveredsofar)))
coveredsofar.update(cover)
costsofar += cost
for delta_cover, benefit, test in contributions:
if delta_cover == 0:
# this test cannot contribute anything
noncontributing.append( (test, round) )
results.pop(test)
if tutor:
print('\n## ALL TESTS NOW RANKED OR DISCARDED\n')
return coveredsofar, ranked, costsofar, noncontributing每一块以 if tutor开始: 添加以上代码
样值输出
调用排序并打印结果的代码是：
totalcoverage, ranking, totalcost, nonranked = greedyranker(results)
print('''
A total of %i points were covered,
using only %i of the initial %i tests,
and should take %g time units to run.
The tests in order of coverage added:
TEST DELTA-COVERAGE'''
% (len(totalcoverage), len(ranking), len(results), totalcost))
print('\n'.join(' %6s %i' % r for r in ranking))结果包含大量东西，来自tutor并且最后跟着结果。
对这个伪随机生成15条测试数据的测试案例，看起来只需要七条去产生总覆盖率。（而且如果你愿意放弃三条测试，其中每个只覆盖了一个额外的点，那么15条测试中的4条就将给出92.5%的可能覆盖率）。
