Python – Create Dictionary Of Tuples

In this article, we will discuss how to create a dictionary of tuples in Python.

Dictionary of tuples with tuples as keys

Here we will pass keys as tuples inside a dictionary

Syntax:

{(tuple1):value,(tuple2):value,.........,(tuple3):value}

Here tuple is a collection of elements that work as a key for some value

Example: Python program to create a dictionary of tuples with a tuple as keys

Output:

{('Paraota', 'Idly', 'Dosa'): 'ojaswi', ('chapathi', 'roti'): 'Bobby'}

Dictionary of tuples with tuples as values

Here we will pass values as tuples inside a dictionary

Syntax:

{key:(tuple),key :(tuple2).........,key:(tuple)}

Here tuple is a collection of elements that represent some value for some key.

Example: Python program to create dictionary of tuples with tuple as values

Output:

{'Bobby': ('chapathi', 'roti'), 'ojaswi': ('Paraota', 'Idly', 'Dosa')}

Create a dictionary from tuples

Here we will create a dictionary from nested tuples and for that we need to pass two values in each tuple one will represent key and the other its corresponding value in the dictionary.

Syntax:

dict((value, key) for key,value in nested_tuple)

Example: Create a dictionary from tuples

Output:

{'bobby': 24, 'ojsawi': 21}
