I want to find gengyang's score. This is what I tried :
print((results["gengyang"])["score"])
but I got an error message instead :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#62>", line 1, in <module>
print((results["gengyang"])["score"])
TypeError: list indices must be integers, not str
Any ideas how to solve this? Thank you ..
Your new results type is a list of dicts.
Lists are indexed by a number. That will be results[1] for the dict
relevant to "gengyang" (not even the 2 of the "id", because lists start
counting at 0).
To find the entry for particular name, you have to search for it (for a
list entry where the dict key "name" gives you the value you expect, ie.
"gengyang" in this example).
So a dict of dicts was a better idea.
