Python将文本文件转换为字典

Question

I'm writing a spell checking function and I have a text file that looks like this

teh the
cta cat
dgo dog
dya day
frmo from
memeber member

The incorrect spelling is on the left (which will be my key) and the correct spelling is on the right (my value).

def spell():
    corrections=open('autoCorrect.txt','r')
    dictCorrect={}
    for line in corrections:
        corrections[0]=[1]
        list(dictCorrect.items())

I know what I want my function to do but can't figure out how to execute it.

Answer 1

Use this:

with open('dictionary.txt') as f:
    d = dict(line.strip().split(None, 1) for line in f)

d is the dictionary.

disclaimer: This will work for the simple structure you have illustrated above, for more complex file structures you will need to do much more complex parsing.

Answer 2

You problably want to use split to get the words, then map the misspelled word to the correctly spelled one:

def spell():
  dictCorrect={}
  with open('autoCorrect.txt','r') as corrections:        
    for line in corrections:
      wrong, right = line.split(' ')
      dictCorrect[wrong] = right
  return dictCorrect
