Using Lists as Dictionary Values

[Pedroski55]

If you had provided some data that would have been nicer!

You can make an empty dictionary like this:

mydict = {j:'' for j in range(25)}

j is the key and the value is an empty string.

Loop through the keys and replace the empty string with anything you like:

for key in mydict.keys():
    mydict[key] = 'value' + str(key + 1)

Like I said, if you had provided some data, that would have been better!

import uuid
from random import choice, randint
from string import ascii_lowercase

# make a random string for rd_info[0]
def randomString():
    random_string = ''.join([choice(ascii_lowercase) for i in range(4)])
    return random_string

# make a random integer for rd_info[3], rd_info[6], rd_info[13]
def randomInt():
    random_integer = randint(1989, 2022)
    return random_integer

# make some data because you did not provide any data
# make a list of lists
data = [[randomString(), randomInt(), randomInt(), randomInt(), 0, 0] for i in range(25)]

# make some fairly unique keys:
keys = [str(uuid.uuid4()) for i in range(25)]

# make a dictionary of empty strings
mydict = {key:'' for key in keys}

# now populate mydict with your data
# you did not provide a sample of your data so I can't use your data
i = 0
for key in mydict.keys():
    # put a data list in mydict as value
    mydict[key] = data[i]
    i +=1
