so, I'm doing this final for school and I can't for the life of me figure out why I'm getting a key Error for 'item' in my code at line 33. any help would be appreciated.
rooms = {

'Market District': {'name': 'Market District', 'South': 'Grayson Armory', 'North': 'Temporal Steel',
'East': 'Mini Mart', 'West': 'Cart', 'item': 'Helm'},

if direction in directions:
if direction in current_room:
current_room = rooms[current_room[direction]]
if current_room['name'] == 'Gate':
print("You've reached the gate but the guards coming back!")
if len(inventory.keys()) >= 6:
print('you took out the guard!')
print("You've gotten past the gate and no one knows where you went you have achieved freedom.")
else:
print('The guard noticed you and apprehended you')
print('Game Over.')
break
else:
print('Choose a direction')
elif direction == 'get item':
if current_room['item'] != 'none':

print(inventory)
current_room['item'] = 'none'
else:
print("theres nothing here to loot")
elif direction == 'quit':
print('Maybe next time!')
break
else:
print('Invalid input.')
I've tried manipulating the inventory and item variables at the top of the code as well deleting like 33-35 and it works just fine but I need the items to be there and to state what items are in the room.

I have a working Jupyter Notebook that models fake data in the form of a dictionary. Using Faker library and other basic Python.
Reading other posts, parallelism seems to be used on methods. However, I want to apply this technique on the big for loop; as I have many more "key-value lists" applied in the process.
Note: I've appended comments of list slicing included in the process, in case that's needed.
Is it possible to run multiple iterations of a for loop at once? (or as many as possible)
from faker import Faker
faker = Faker()
Faker.seed(1)
import pandas as pd
import random
random.seed(1)
# Key Value lists
biographic_keys = [['Name', 'faker.unique.name()'], ['Aliases', 'faker.unique.user_name()'], ['Date of birth', 'faker.unique.date_of_birth().isoformat()'], ['Phone numbers', 'faker.unique.phone_number()'], ['Addresses', 'faker.unique.address()'], ['Nationality', 'faker.unique.country()'], ['Social Security Number', 'faker.unique.ssn()'], ['Alien File Number', 'random.randrange(1000000, 999999999, random.randint(7, 9))']]
biometric_keys = [['Height', "'{}ft {}inch'.format(random.randint(4, 7), random.randint(0, 11)) if random.randint(0, 1) == 1 else '{}cm'.format(random.randint(100, 200))"], ['Weight', "'{}kg'.format(random.randint(60, 130)) if random.randint(0, 1) == 1 else '{}st {}lb'.format(random.randint(7, 50), random.randint(0, 13))"], ['Eye color', "random.choice(['Amber', 'Blue', 'Brown', 'Gray', 'Green', 'Hazel'])"], ['Hair color', "random.choice(['Brown', 'Blond', 'Black', 'Auburn', 'Red', 'Gray', 'White', 'Bald'])"]]

Solution appended below. Please add a solution if you believe yours is a better alternative. I'd love to learn other approaches for the future.
Inspired by Simple multithread for loop in Python
top solution.
Using multiprocessing.dummy as mp and converting my for loop grand procedure into a function.
All "entry" dictionaries are collected into list dicts and are added to dictionary big_boi_dict as originally intended.

# Programmatic key-values

for i, subset in enumerate(alien_key_val):

if invoc[-1] != ':': val = eval(invoc)
else: val = ""
if 'Identification numbers' in key: val = {i[0]: i[1] for i in val}
subset_dict.update({key: val})
entry_dict.update({subset_name: subset_dict})
alien_dict.update({'id_' + str(entry): entry_dict})
#print("\nALIEN_DICT:\n", alien_dict)
return alien_dict

p=mp.Pool(4)
dicts = p.map(alien_dict_func, range(1, entries+1)) # range(0,1000) if you want to replicate your example
#print("DICTS: ", dicts)
big_boi_dict = {}
for d in dicts: big_boi_dict.update(d)
print("big_boi_dict: ", big_boi_dict)
p.close()
p.join()

For the question of accessing every element in the loop simultaneously. I tried something like that
import time
import threading
class handle_data(threading.Thread):
def __init__(self, threadID, name, counter):
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
self.threadID = threadID
self.name = name
self.counter = counter
def run(self): # handle_data
print ("Starting " + self.name)
print(self.name, 5, self.counter)
print("Exiting " + self.name)
def stop(self):
self.running = False
if __name__ == "__main__":
for data in range(10):
handle_data(data,"Thread-"+str(data),data).start()
I am trying to code out a function for this project. I am new to python and am taking a class online for it. I am trying to define a function that will read what room my player is in and to give the riddle associated with it. so far this is what I have, there is another dictionary that current_room works with. I just keep getting key errors when trying to test run. If there is a better way to do this as well, please let me know.
EDIT: updating with whole code
# The dictionary links a room to other rooms.

See basically what I observe from the above code is that you want to check whether the current_room is equal to Lunchroom or not or for any other rooms you have in your riddles dictionary.
So for that, you have to check for the presence of a key in the dictionary not for the values. Also, the below part is incorrect in your code
if current_room in riddles['name']:
instead, it should be
if current_room in riddles.keys():
and the part of code if riddle == riddles['answer']: is incorrect as the you are not passing the right reference to the dictionary key
it should be if riddle == riddles[current_room]['answer']:
so here is the correct code with the working demo for you to understand.
riddles = {'Lunchroom': {'name': 'Lunchroom', 'question': 'riddle?', 'answer': 'yes'}}
def room_puzzle(current_room):
global user_inventory
if current_room in riddles.keys():
riddle = input('{}'.format(riddles[current_room]['question'])).strip()
if riddle == riddles[current_room]['answer']: # here you have to define the refrence to the dictionary value, using the parent key first
# user_inventory += 1
print('You gained a key')
else:
print('that is incorrect')
# return user_inventory
else:
print("no such room")
current_room = 'Lunchroom' #let's assume for now
room_puzzle(current_room)
current_room = 'Someroom' #let's now change the current_room and check that
room_puzzle(current_room)
Here is my code:
x = ['ann', 'D4B3', 'richard', 'A4N5', 'lily', 'M3L1', 'david', 'P4N5', 'bea', 'S3B2']
List = []
i = 0
while i < len(x):
a = 1
name_list = 'list' + str(a)
name_list = {
'wife_code': x[i+1],
'wife_list': x[i],
'husband_code': x[i+3],
'husband_list': x[i+2],
}
List.append(name_list)
a += 1
i += 4
print(List)
Upon running the code, it is throwing "IndexError: list index out of range". I know that the error is happening in the 3rd loop because it doesn't have a 'husband_code' and 'husband_list'. Is there a way to print "no value" on that indices that are out of range?
Expected output:
[{'wife_code': 'ann', 'wife_list': 'D4B3', 'husband_code': 'richard', 'husband_list': 'A4N5'},
{'wife_code': 'lily', 'wife_list': 'M3L1', 'husband_code': 'david', 'husband_list': 'P4N5'},
{'wife_code': 'bea', 'wife_list': 'S3B2', 'husband_code': 'no value', 'husband_list': 'no value'}]
Use itertools.zip_longest with dict
Ex:
from itertools import zip_longest
x = ['ann', 'D4B3', 'richard', 'A4N5', 'lily', 'M3L1', 'david', 'P4N5', 'bea', 'S3B2']
result = []
keys = ['wife_list', 'wife_code', 'husband_list', 'husband_code']
for i in range(0, len(x), 4):
result.append(dict(zip_longest(keys, x[i:i+4], fillvalue='no value')))
print(result)
with a list comprehension
Ex:
result = [dict(zip_longest(keys, x[i:i+4], fillvalue='no value')) for i in range(0, len(x), 4)]
Output:
[{'husband_code': 'A4N5',
'husband_list': 'richard',
'wife_code': 'D4B3',
'wife_list': 'ann'},
{'husband_code': 'P4N5',
'husband_list': 'david',
'wife_code': 'M3L1',
'wife_list': 'lily'},
{'husband_code': 'no value',
'husband_list': 'no value',
'wife_code': 'S3B2',
'wife_list': 'bea'}]

Clearly this code needs work, but I can't figure this in terms of list comprehension.
Use json loads() method:
matrix = '[[2, 0, 4],[1, 2, 4],[4, 4, 2]]'
matrix = json.loads(matrix)
type(matrix)
<type 'list'>
And in case you want to check for errors in input you can wrap it in try-except:
try:
matrix = json.loads(matrix)
except ValueError:
#code goes here
An alternative to json.loads is ast.literal_eval. It has the advantage that it recognizes Python syntax even if it was invalid JSON, like single-quoted strings. In your exact case, it doesn't make a difference:
import ast
matrix = '[[2, 0, 4],[1, 2, 4],[4, 4, 2]]'
matrix = ast.literal_eval(matrix)
