I am looking for a way to build dictionaries of dict in python.

Thats not a problem, you just nest them:

d1 = {key: value,...} # a single level dictionary

d2 = {key: d1, ...}   # a dictionary of dictionaries...

d3 = { key1: {key2: value, ...}, ...}  # and on one line

For example in perl I could do

my $hash_ref = {};
$hash->{$a}->{$b}->{$c} = "value";
if (exists $hash->{$a}->{$b}->{$c} ){ print "found value"}

Can I do something similar with dictionaries in Python.

No idea, I haven't done any Perl for over 10 years.
What does that actually do?
