如何在python字典中存储和检索多行值

Question

I want to use dictionary in python of following type

dictionary = {  
  "Who is Elon Musk":  
    "Elon Reeve Musk FRS is an American business magnate, investor and engineer. He is the founder, CEO, and lead designer of SpaceX; co-founder, CEO, and product architect of Tesla, Inc.; and co-founder and CEO of Neuralink " ,   
  "Second Question":  
    "Second answer"  
}

I want to retrieve the answer from question by using above approach.
What is wrong with this approach and what are correct ways of doing it. Also is there any better way than using dictionary to perform above task.

Answer 1

You can use a newline character "\\n" to show where a line break should occur. Consecutive string literals are interpreted as a single string, so we can easily break the literal in the same place as the final string will be broken.

dictionary = {  
  "Who is Elon Musk":  
    "Elon Reeve Musk FRS is an American business magnate, investor and engineer.\n"
    "He is the founder, CEO, and lead designer of SpaceX;\n"
    "co-founder, CEO, and product architect of Tesla, Inc.;\n"
    "and co-founder and CEO of Neuralink." ,   
  "Second Question":  
    "Second answer"  
}

A triple-quoted string could work here, but they don't play nice with Python's indentation rules, making code difficult to read.

Answer 2

Dictionaries are usually for data which can be structured as key-value pairs. In this case, it assumes that you know the exact question in order to look up the answer (is this really a good idea?). What about using a set? It prevents duplicates as well.
