to get a better handle on the difference between items() and iteritems() and
what situations would call for them respectively.
items() returns a list, iteritems() returns an iterator. If you don't
actually need an explicit list, iteritems() saves the cost of creating
it.
Having said that, Kent I am not 100 percent sure of what you menat when you
mention a two-level dict. Can you give me a very brief example?
Your dict d would look like this:
d={
1: {23A:[a,b,c,d], 24A:[b,c,d]},
2: {23A:[a,b], 24A:[a,b,c,d]}
}
Lads...
>>> d={
... 1: {23A:[a,b,c,d], 24A:[b,c,d]},
... 2: {23A:[a,b], 24A:[a,b,c,d]}
... }
File "<input>", line 2
1: {23A:[a,b,c,d], 24A:[b,c,d]},

Let's get a proper syntax for our data before attempting to process it.
