Is there a best-practices way to ask for an object containing only the
keys
named in cols out of row? In other words, to get this:
{"city" : "Hoboken", "state" : "Alaska"}
Untested:
dict( (key,value) for (key,value) in row.iteritems() if key in cols )
Works in Py2.4
Stefan
Or dict((key, row[key]) for key in cols).
