[Tutor] forcing the None values of a dictionary
I'm wondering if there is something I overlooked for this function I wrote... and also whether it could've been done destrictively instead of returning a new dictionary: def dictNoneValueTo(d, new_value=''): """force None values in a dictionary to a default value""" for k in d: if d[k] is None: d[k] = new_value return d -- This message w/attachments (message) is intended solely for the use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or proprietary.
