How to merge multiple dicts with same key?

Question

I have multiple dicts/key-value pairs like this:

d1 = {key1: x1, key2: y1}  
d2 = {key1: x2, key2: y2}  

I want the result to be a new di

Answer 1

Assume that you have the list of ALL keys (you can get this list by iterating through all dictionaries and get their keys). Let's name it listKeys. Also:

• listValues is the list of ALL values for a single key that you want to merge.
• allDicts: all dictionaries that you want to merge.

result = {}
for k in listKeys:
    listValues = [] #we will convert it to tuple later, if you want.
    for d in allDicts:
       try:
            fileList.append(d[k]) #try to append more values to a single key
        except:
            pass
    if listValues: #if it is not empty
        result[k] = typle(listValues) #convert to tuple, add to new dictionary with key k
