I was trying to shorten the code for this problem when I encountered the problem.
Basically, I was trying a nested dictionary comprehension & was unsuccessful in the attempt. Here is what I tried.
dict2 = {key:value for key, value in line.split(":")
for line in ["1:One", "2:Two", "4:Four"]}
print dict2
When I run this, it gives me
NameError: name 'line' is not defined
And, when I reverse the for statements like this
dict2 = {key:value for line in ["1:One", "2:Two", "4:Four"]
for key, value in line.split(":")}
print dict2
It results in
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack
I need help on the nesting structure of dictionary (or list) comprehension. An example would be help a lot.
