Hi!

I don't really understand what you need/want. Can you explain in more
details?

You can either use Py_BuildValue (See
http://docs.python.org/api/arg-parsing.html#l2h-214) or PyDict_New and
PyDict_SetItem (See http://docs.python.org/api/dictObjects.html) to
construct a dictionary.

Good luck,

Carsten.

It looks like you are asking how to create a dictionary (hash). If it
is more than that, then please add some information.

n = {}
n[3] = 'abc'
n['x'] = 7
n

{'x': 7, 3: 'abc'}
