I know how to store in a list but how do I store these values as a dictionary instead?
items = []
for a in range(10):
items.append([])
for b in range(10):
if function() == condition:
items[a].append(WRONG)
for a,b in oldItems:
items[a][b] = RIGHT
So far I have come to the conclusion that I could store items as items = {}
but I don't know how to duplicate the .append
method with a dictionary. Nor do I know how to access a dictionary like items[a][b]
does. Any suggestions?
One major difference between a dictionary and a list is that dictionaries have "keys" while lists have "indices". So instead of .append()
, you need to assign the value to a specific key, like this:
items = {}
for a in range(10):
items[a] = [] # items[a] creates a key 'a' and stores an empty list there
for b in range(10):
if function() == condition:
items[a].append(WRONG)
for a, b in oldItems:
items[a][b] = RIGHT
Take a look at the docs on dict
, as well as some tutorials on beginner Python programming.
Declaring a dictionary:
dictionary = {}
Adding to a dictionary:
dictionary[newkey] = newvalue
Accessing a dictionary:
print (dictionary[newkey])
Returns:
newvalue
#take input from User
N = int(raw_input())
#declare a dictionary
dictn = {}
for _ in range(N):
SplitInput = raw_input().split()
keyValue, ListValues = SplitInput[0], SplitInput[1:]
ListValues = map(float, ListValues)
dictn[keyValue] = ListValues
print dictn
input:
3
FirstKey 11 12 13
SecondKey 45 46 47
ThirdKey 67 68 69
Output:
{'SecondKey': [45.0, 46.0, 47.0], 'ThirdKey': [67.0, 68.0, 69.0], 'FirstKey': [11.0, 12.0, 13.0]}
