Converting an RPy2 ListVector to a Python dictionary

Question

The natural Python equivalent to a named list in R is a dict, but RPy2 gives you a ListVector object.

import rpy2.robjects as robjects

a = robjects.r(\'list         


        

Answer 1

You can also do the following:

In

dict(a.items())

Out

{'foo': R object with classes: ('character',) mapped to:
 ['barbat'], 'fizz': R object with classes: ('numeric',) mapped to:
 [123.000000]}
