In playing around with Pyton 3 dictionaries I've come up with 2 questions 1) How are duplicate keys handled? For example:
Qb_Dict = {"Montana": ["Joe", "Montana", "415-123-4567", "joe.mont...@gmail.com","Candlestick Park"], "Tarkington": ["Fran", "651-321-7657", "frank.tarking...@gmail.com", "Metropolitan Stadidum"], "Namath": ["Joe", "212-222-7777", "joe.nam...@gmail.com", "Shea Stadium"], "Elway": ["John", "303-9876-333", "john.el...@gmai.com", "Mile High Stadium"], "Elway": ["Ed", "303-9876-333", "john.el...@gmai.com", "Mile High Stadium"], "Manning": ["Archie","504-888-1234", "archie.mann...@gmail.com", "Louisiana Superdome"], "Staubach": ["Roger","214-765-8989", "roger.staub...@gmail.com", "Cowboy Stadium"]} print(Qb_Dict["Elway"],"\n") # print a dictionary entry In the above the "wrong" Elway entry, the second one, where the first name is Ed, is getting printed. I just added that second Elway row to see how it would handle duplicates and the results are interesting, to say the least. 2) Is there a way to print out the actual value of the key, like Montana would be 0, Tarkington would be 1, etc? -- Frank L.
