Python lamba function to convert to a dictionary? -

i having list of dictionary representation follows:

a = [{'score': 300, 'id': 3}, {'score': 253, 'id': 2}, {'score': 232, 'id': 1}] 

i new python , need python lambda function through output :

dict = [{3:300}, {2:253}, {1:232}] 

so can find value given key

>>> print dict[3] >>> 300 

i appreciate on this.

1. don't use dict variable name, because shadow builtin type name dict;
2. {3, 300} not dictionary, {3:300} is;

you can use dict comprehension:

in [6]: dic = {d['id']: d['score'] d in a}  in [7]: dic out[7]: {1: 232, 2: 253, 3: 300} 

or dict constructor @jon mentioned backward compatibility since dict-comp available on py2.7+ :

in [12]: import operator     ...: dict(map(operator.itemgetter('id', 'score'), a)) out[12]: {1: 232, 2: 253, 3: 300}
