How can I take a JSON List generated from an API and store that in a hashmap in Python?

Question

API: https://tda-api.readthedocs.io/en/latest/client.html#current-quotes

Attempting to write the following code:

result = c.get_quote("TSLA")

stockdatalist = []

stockdatalist.append(result)

print(stockdatalist)

Output:

[<Response [200]>]

My Expectation: How can I take the quote attributes and store them into a hashmap?

Answer 1

In Python, you can use a data structure like Dictionary to store the values like in a hashmap:

quote_dict = {}
stockdatadict = {}

for quote in quotes:
    result = c.get_quote(quote)
    stockdatadict[quote] = result
print(stockdatadict)
