Merging two lists into dictionary while keeping duplicate data in python

Question

Hi, I want to merge two lists into one dictionary. Suppose I have two lists such as below

list_one = [\'a\', \'a\', \'c\', \'d\']

list_two = [1,2,3,4]

Answer 1

Dictionary has unique keys. If you need the value of 'a' separately store the zipped data in a list or you can use list in values part of the dict and store the values as: {'a': [1,2],'c': [3], 'd': [4]}
