How can I extract all values from a dictionary in Python?

Question

I have a dictionary d = {1:-0.3246, 2:-0.9185, 3:-3985, ...}.

How do I extract all of the values of d into a list l?

Answer 1

Pythonic duck-typing should in principle determine what an object can do, i.e., its properties and methods. By looking at a dictionary object one may try to guess it has at least one of the following: dict.keys() or dict.values() methods. You should try to use this approach for future work with programming languages whose type checking occurs at runtime, especially those with the duck-typing nature.
