Question

I have this code:

   while i<len(line):
        if re.findall(pattern, line[i]):
            k,v = line[i].split('=')
            print k
            token = dict(k=v)
            print token
            break

and the result I’m getting is :

ptk
{'k': 'ptk_first'}

how to make this few lines of code nicer and dictionary that will look like this:

{'ptk': 'ptk_first'}

Answer 1

In [112]: line="ptk=ptk_first" 

In [113]: dict([line.split("=")])
Out[113]: {'ptk': 'ptk_first'}

for your code:

for line in lines:
    if re.findall(pattern, line):
        token = dict([line.split("=")])
        print token
