Get elements from dict using multiple keys

Question

If I have:

d = {\'one\':1, \'two\':2, \'three\':3, \'four\':4}

How can I get values of \'one\' and \'three\' in one command. Something like thi

Answer 1

You can just directly access them:

>>> d = {'one':1, 'two':2, 'three':3, 'four':4}
>>> [d['one'], d['three']]
[1, 3]
>>> 

In the method you use, it is searching for the key ('one', 'three') in d, which obviously doesn't exist.

Answer 2

Using list comprehension:

>>> d = {'one':1, 'two':2, 'three':3, 'four':4}
>>> [d[key] for key in 'one', 'three']
[1, 3]
