update certain key-value pairs of a dict from another dict

2016-11-11 Thread Daiyue Weng
Hi, I have two dicts, e.g. dict1 = {'A': 'a', 'B': 'b', 'C': 'c'} dict2 = {'A': 'aa', 'B': 'bb', 'C': 'cc'} I am wondering how to update dict1 using dict2 that only keys 'A' and 'B' of dict1 are udpated. It will result in dict1 = {'A': 'aa', 'B': 'bb', 'C': 'c'} cheers -- https://mail.python.
