Python: Print all unique values in a dictionary

Python dictionary: Exercise-20 with Solution

Write a Python program to print all unique values in a dictionary.

Sample Solution:-

Python Code:

L = [{"V":"S001"}, {"V": "S002"}, {"VI": "S001"}, {"VI": "S005"}, {"VII":"S005"}, {"V":"S009"},{"VIII":"S007"}]
print("Original List: ",L)
u_value = set( val for dic in L for val in dic.values())
print("Unique Values: ",u_value)

Sample Output:

Original List:  [{'V': 'S001'}, {'V': 'S002'}, {'VI': 'S001'}, {'VI': 'S005'}, {'VII': 'S005'}, {'V': 'S009'},
 {'VIII': 'S007'}]                                                                                            
Unique Values:  {'S009', 'S002', 'S007', 'S005', 'S001'}

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

  • The os and os.path modules.
  • The __file__ constant
  • os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
  • os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
  • os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
  • os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
