I am trying to return the values of the zip codes in within a 10 mile radius of another zip code. I am returning the correct values using ZipcodeSearchEngine and I thought it was returning a dictionary, but how to do I just print the "Zipocde" values in res. On a Mac, using anaconda with Python 3.6. Please let me know if you have any questions. Code and return values below.
from uszipcode import ZipcodeSearchEngine
search = ZipcodeSearchEngine()
area = search.by_zipcode("10001")
Lat = area['Latitude']
Long = area['Longitude']
print('This is the Longitude:'+ ' ' + str(Long))
print('This is the Latitude:'+ ' ' + str(Lat))
res = search.by_coordinate(Lat, Long, radius=10, returns=5)
print(res)
inp = input("Select key to print value for!")
if inp in res:
print(res[inp])

As noted by Cubic, the question is unclear. However, I assume that you want to print the zipcode instead of all the detail about city. You assumption that search.by_coordinate(Lat, Long, radius=10, returns=5) is wrong. It returns a list. You can always check the type of the variable in python using type(res). I also assume that users are supposed to select a number as input. When you get res[inp] you get one element of the input, which is a dictionary. You could use the key to get the zipcode from this element. Modify your code as follows,
if inp in res:
print(res[inp]['Zipcode'])
