I tried rubberduckying this, but I give up. I don't understand why this keeps failing me. I have the following dictionary template I want to fill
testfile = {'locations':
{'location_name1":
{'document_title1': 'title_value1',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1'}
}}
I have the following code that triest to insert multiple values into it. This represents the code that I'm currently working with.
testfile = {}
locatie = 0
while location != 5:
page_nr = 0
while page_nr != 3:
testfile = testfile + {'location':{'location_naam' + str(location):
{'page_nr' + str(page_nr):'text_value'+ str(pagina_nr)}}}
page_nr += 1
location += 1
This keeps resulting in the code overwriting testfile every loop. But i want to add the values and basically getting 3 location_names with 5 document_titles/page_nrs per location_name.
How do i achieve this?
EDIT
The desired output would be
{'location':
{'location_naam0': {
'page_nr0': 'text_value0',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1'}},
{'location_naam1': {
'page_nr0': 'text_value0',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1'}},
{'location_naam2': {
'page_nr0': 'text_value0',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1'}},
{'location_naam3': {
'page_nr0': 'text_value0',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1'}},
{'location_naam4': {
'page_nr0': 'text_value0',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1',
'page_nr1': 'text_value1'}}
}
Is this what you want?
print({
'location': {
"location_naam{}".format(i): {
"page_nr{}".format(k): "text_value{}".format(k)
for k in range(2)
}
for i in range(4)
}
})
out:
{
"location": {
"location_naam0": {
"page_nr0": "text_value0",
"page_nr1": "text_value1"
},
"location_naam1": {
"page_nr0": "text_value0",
"page_nr1": "text_value1"
},
"location_naam2": {
"page_nr0": "text_value0",
"page_nr1": "text_value1"
},
"location_naam3": {
"page_nr0": "text_value0",
"page_nr1": "text_value1"
}
}
}
