Dear list,
I have many dictionaries with the same set of keys and I would like to write a function to calculate something based on these values. For example, I have
a = {'x':1, 'y':2}
b = {'x':3, 'y':3}def fun(dict): dict['z'] = dict['x'] + dict['y']
fun(a) and fun(b) will set z in each dictionary as the sum of x and y.
My function and dictionaries are a lot more complicated than these so I would like to set dict as the default namespace of fun. Is this possible? The ideal code would be:
def fun(dict): # set dict as local namespace # locals() = dict? z = x + y
Many thanks in advance. Bo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
