To deposit a nodes in the tree (adding a new node), for example: put 3: {} in the Tree branch at branch tuple (2, 4, 1, 5) . If don't use : def f(T,k,v): m=len(T) if m==0: Tree[k]=v elif m==1: Tree[T[0]][k]=v elif m==2: Tree[T[0]][T[1]][k]=v elif m==3: Tree[T[0]][T[1]][T[2]][k]=v elif m==4: Tree[T[0]][T[1]][T[2]][T[3]][k]=v elif m==5: Tree[T[0]][T[1]][T[2]][T[3]][T[4]][k]=v ...
f( (2, 4, 1, 5),3,{}) Is there a dynamic approach(the node tuple can be any length) I want to create a function like f(branch_tuple,key,value) Tree = {1: {2: {3: {...}, 4: {...}, ...}, 3: {2: {...}, 4: {...}, ...}, 4: {2: {...}, 3: {...}, ...}, ...}, 2: {1: {...}, 3: {...}, 4: {...}, ...}, 3: {...}, 4: {...}, ...} *(... indicates omission) * (Node tuple represent one of the branches) _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
