I needed to test if the values of all entries in a dictionary were equal but since the values themselves were dictionaries I couldn't simply take a set of the values and test if this equated to one. So I ended up taking all combination of the keys and testing pairs of sub dictionaries. I just want to check that there isn't a more direct way of doing this that testing all combinations?
import itertools dictmain={"K1": {1:"SD_V1",2:"SD_V2"}, "K2": {1:"SD_V1",2:"SD_V2"}, "K3": {1:"SD_V1",2:"SD_V2"}} for compare in list(itertools.combinations(dictmain,2)): print "Comparing dictionaries:", compare if dictmain[compare[0]]==dictmain[compare[1]]: print "comb dict are equal" else: print "comb dict are NOT equal" break Many thanks in advance, Jignesh
