Iterate over nested dictionary

Question

Is there an easy way of iterating over nested dictionary, which may consist of other objects like lists, tuples, then again dictionaries so that iteration covers all the ele

Answer 1

Iterating over a nested dictionary containing unexpected nested elements.

Here is my solution :

# d is the nested dictionary

for item in d:
    if type(item) == list:
        print "Item is a list"
        for i in item: print i
    elif type(item) == dict:
        print "Item is a dict"
        for i in item: print i
    elif type(item) == tuple:
        print "Item is a tuple"
        for i in item: print i
    else:
        print "Item is not a list, neither a dict and not even a tuple"
        print item

I think the above example is very general, you can mold it for your use case.
