printing specific values from a list in a dictionary

Question

I'm trying to print specific values inside a dictionary.

my_dictionary = {'url': 'www.google.com', 'value': [{'car': 'Mercedes', 'engine': 'Gas'}, {'car': 'Audi', 'engine': 'Diesel'}, {'car': 'Volkswagen', 'engine': 'Hybrid'}]

Expected outcome: Gas, Diesel, Hybrid

for x in my_dictionary:
    y= my_dictionary['value'][0]['engine']
    print(y)

Above is my code but it gives me back: Gas Gas

Answer 1

my_dictionary has two keys, so x will successively be 'url' and 'value' . And then you're not actually using your iteration variable in the print statement, just printing from the first element of value both times.

You need to actually iterate over the entries in the 'value' list. What you intend looks like this:

for entry in my_dictionary['value']:
    print(entry['engine'])

Answer 2

To add to the previous answer, this may be a good candidate for list comprehension:

print([entry["engine"] for entry in my_dictionary["value"]])
