I have a CSV-File which I convert to an array like this: - [['Marko', 'BVV', 'CLS', 'K5', '100'],
-
['Marko', 'BVV', 'CLS', 'K5', '200'],
-
['Marko', 'BVV', 'CLS', 'K4', '100'],
-
['Marko', 'HKK', 'UUI', 'K1', '200'],
-
['Anne', 'BVV', 'CSL', 'K3', '120'],
-
['Anne', 'BVV', 'CSL', 'K3', '200']]
I'd like to build a nested dictionary in which each keyname has a value which is another dictionary. For example if I were to manually build it the dictionary would look like: - dict={'Marko':{'BVV':{'CLS':{'K5:[['100']['200']], K4:[['100']]}}, 'HKK':{'UUI':{'K1':[[200]]}}},'Anne':{'BVV':{'CSL':{'K3:[['120']['200']]}}}}
The idea I had, to do this via nested loops, seems a bit clumsy to me, because sometimes the data structure can be ways deeper.What is the best way to do this?

You may have better luck designing a tree class to handle your dataset, as opposed manipulating one of the general purpose containers.

I have a dictionary that looks like this
MY_DICT=FOO
I am having a problem updating this with a simple
MY_DICT.update(NEW_DICT) as update doesn't seem to care about getting
into the inner dicts.
Getting the keys of each and iterating through and updating each one is
terribly slow as the number of keys gets bigger and bigger.
What is the bst way to update my nested dicts?

Hi there,
I'm learning Python at the moment and trying to grok the thinking behind

I was googling for nested functions and found this Guido quote:

local variables of the surrounding block -- only to the globals of the

Hello all,
I am trying to create a Dictionary of dictionaries in VBA. All I do is declare two dictionaries, one temporary one, and add the temporary dictionary to the main one recursively.
The dictionaries are created fine, and i can access their values without any problems.
What I want to do however is to pass the (low-level) dictionary to a function and have it access its data. But I can't seem to be able to do that. I have tried...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
