Question

Assume I have a dict:

firstdict = {"somelist":[]}

I have another dict:

  seconddict = {"attribute1": "value1", "attribute2": "value2"}

After appending the dictionary

firstdict["somelist"].append(seconddict)

I want to print the “attribute1” value. Though the following statement is not working:

print firstdict["somelist"][0].attribute1

How to I print/access the value of attribute1?

Answer 1

>>> firstdict = {"somelist":[]}
>>> seconddict = {"attribute1": "value1", "attribute2": "value2"}
>>> firstdict["somelist"].append(seconddict)
>>> print firstdict["somelist"][0]['attribute1']
value1
