Append to Python dictionary from method

Question

I have this dictionary called biography

self.biography = {\'Name\' : \'\', \'Age\' : 0, \'Nationality\' : \'\', \'Position\' : 0, \'Footed\' : \'\'}

Answer 1

def create_player(self):
    name = input('Player name: ')
    age = int(input('Player age: '))
    nationality = input('Nationality: ')
    position = input('Position: ')
    footed = input('Footed: ')

    # afterwards
    self.biography["Name"] = name
    self.biography["Age"] = age
    ... and so on ...

Just access your biography dict like an (associative) array.
If you want an ordered output, use an OrderedDict like so:

from collections import OrderedDict

class myClass():
    biography = OrderedDict()
    def setupDict(self):
        self.biography["Name"] = "Some name here"
