I am a beginner in python and I'm using python crash course book as my learning material. I am currently working on the exercises with lists in a dictionary.
I am trying to do this example
and I cannot get it right. Here is my code below
favoriteLanguages = {
'jen': ['python', 'ruby'],
'sarah': ['c'],
'edward': ['ruby', 'go'],
'phil': ['python', 'haskell']
}
for name, language in favoriteLanguages.items():
if len(language) > 1:
print(f"{name.title()}'s favorite languages are:")
for l in language:
print(f'\t{l.title()}')
else:
print(f"{name.title()}'s favorite language is {l.title()}.")
and this is the result that I get. I cannot get the value for sarah right
CodePudding user response:
So you are doing wrong in the last line;
print(f"{name.title()}'s favorite language is {l.title()}.")
you don't ave to use l
but language[0]
as in this case, language
will have only one element and you want to get that.
So the correct form will be;
print(f"{name.title()}'s favorite language is {language[0].title()}.")
Also as you mentioned that you are a beginner, check how to use else
statement with for
loop as we can do that in python and you did that here by mistake.
