pythonic way to associate list elements with their indices
- by Dragan Chupacabrovic
Hello Everybody,
I have a list of values and I want to put them in a dictionary that would map each value to it's index.
I can do it this way:
>>> t = (5,6,7)
>>> d = dict(zip(t, range(len(t))))
>>> d
{5: 0, 6: 1, 7: 2}
this is not bad, but I'm looking for something more elegant.
I've come across the following, but it does the opposite of what I need:
>>> d = dict(enumerate(t))
>>> d
{0: 5, 1: 6, 2: 7}
Please share your solutions,
Thank you
