Combining arrays into dict

[deanhystad]

I don't think you need a function. I would generate the dictionary like this.

Map your LED "names" to pin numbers.

leds = {"in_ledS":17, "in_ledXL":18, "in_ledXXL":22, "in_ledS1":23, "in_ledS2":4}

Map your LED "names" to LED status

led_state = {name:GPIO.input(pin) for name, pin in leds.items()}

Or if you got a dictionary of status that you want to apply.

for led, state in led_state.items():
    GPIO.output(leds[led], state)
