The provided Python code extracts key-value pairs from a dictionary...
The provided Python code extracts key-value pairs from a dictionary where the values (which are lists) do not have any elements in common with a given list (req_list
). Here is a detailed explanation of what the code does:
Code Breakdown:
-
Dictionary Initialization:
test_dict = {'gfg': [4, 6], 'is': [10], 'best': [4, 5, 7]}
The dictionary
test_dict
maps keys ('gfg', 'is', 'best') to lists of integers. -
Print Original Dictionary:
print("The original dictionary : " + str(test_dict))
This prints the original dictionary, but note that here
"
is an HTML encoded version of a quotation mark ("
). It should be replaced with proper Python quotes like so:print("The original dictionary : " + str(test_dict))
-
Define the Required List:
req_list = [4, 6, 10]
A list of integers (
req_list
) is defined. The goal is to exclude entries fromtest_dict
if any of the integers in their associated value (list) are present inreq_list
. -
Extract Dictionary Items Without Elements in
req_list
:res = {key: val for key, val in test_dict.items() if not any(vals in req_list for vals in val)}
This uses dictionary comprehension to filter out items from
test_dict
.test_dict.items()
is used to iterate over the key-value pairs of the dictionary.- For each key-value pair (
key, val
), theif not any()
condition is evaluated:vals in req_list for vals in val
checks if any element (vals
) in the listval
is present inreq_list
.- If none of the elements in
val
are found inreq_list
, the key-value pair is included in the resulting dictionary (res
).
-
Print the Result:
print("The extracted dictionary: " + str(res))
Once again, replace
"
with proper quotation marks:print("The extracted dictionary: " + str(res))
Output:
Given the input dictionary:
test_dict = {'gfg': [4, 6], 'is': [10], 'best': [4, 5, 7]}
And req_list = [4, 6, 10]
, the output would be:
- Key
'gfg'
is excluded because[4, 6]
has elements inreq_list
. - Key
'is'
is excluded because[10]
has elements inreq_list
. - Key
'best'
is excluded because[4, 5, 7]
has elements inreq_list
.
Thus, the resulting dictionary is:
The extracted dictionary: {}
Summary:
This code extracts key-value pairs from a dictionary where the values (lists) do not share any elements with a specified list (req_list
). If all values have overlapping elements with req_list
, the result will be an empty dictionary, as in the given example.
