Write dictionary of lists to a CSV file

Question

I\'m struggling with writing a dictionary of lists to a .csv file.

This is how my dictionary looks like:

dict[key1]=[1,2,3]
dict[key2]=[4,5,6]
dict[k         


        

Answer 1

This will work even when the list in key are of different length.

    with myFile:  
        writer = csv.DictWriter(myFile, fieldnames=list(clusterWordMap.keys()))   
        writer.writeheader()
        while True:
            data={}
            for key in clusterWordMap:
                try:
                    data[key] = clusterWordMap[key][ind]
                except:
                    pass
            if not data:
                break
            writer.writerow(data)

You can use pandas for saving it into csv:

df = pd.DataFrame({key: pd.Series(value) for key, value in dictmap.items()})
df.to_csv(filename, encoding='utf-8', index=False)
