    {'name': 'Jerome', 'weight': 3.38, 'wingspan': 49.96, 'length': 19.75},
    {'name': 'Ibraheem', 'weight': 3.08, 'wingspan': 50.59, 'length': 20.6},
    {'name': 'Tiana', 'weight': 0.81, 'wingspan': 47.86, 'length': 17.94},
    {'name': 'Lucas', 'weight': 3.33, 'wingspan': 48.27, 'length': 18.77},
    {'name': 'Rickie', 'weight': 4.4, 'wingspan': 51.0, 'length': 20.34}
]

def get_data(data, keys):
    for adict in list_1:
        for key in keys:
            if key in adict:
                print(f"{key:8} {adict[key]:10} ", end="")
        print()

def testit():
    get_data(["Jerome","Ibraheem","Tiana","Lucas","Rickie"], ['name', 'weight'])
