I get a list of dicts as output from a source I need to then extract various dicts out of. I can easily extract the dict of choice based on it containing a key with a certain value using list comp but I was hoping to use dict comp so the output was not contained within a list.
reduce(lambda x,y: dict(x.items() + y.items()), filter(lambda z: z['key'] == value, my_list)) where my_list is a list of dicts. The premise is all dicts in the list have a unique value for z['key']. Anyone have a pointer as to how I might tackle this without lambdas and only using dict comp? Thanks! jlc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
