Python dictionary creation syntax

Question

I\'m wondering if there\'s any way to populate a dictionary such that you have multiple keys mapping to the same value that\'s less verbose than say:

d = {1:         


        

Answer 1

Try to iterate through the dict items.

• For python 2.x

{key: value for key, value in your_dict.iteritems()}

• For python 3.x

{key: value for key, value in your_dict.items()}
