i want write python code produce output this:-

{ 'monday': {'maths': [100  95  65  32  23  45  77  54  78  88  45  67  89},  'tuesday': {'science':45   53  76  78  54  78  34  99  55  100 45  56 78},  'wednesday': {'english': 43   45  56  76  98  34  65  34  45  67  76  34  98} } 

here snippet:

fo = open('c:\\users\\aman\\documents\\dataval.txt','r') data = fo.readlines()  mydict = {} li = [] in range(len(data)):     row = data[i].split('\t')     timekey = row[0]     type = row[1]     if mydict.has_key(timekey):         li = mydict[timekey]         li.append(type)         mydict[timekey] = li     else:         li = []         li.append(type)         mydict[timekey] = li print mydict 

this gives me output like:-

{'monday': ['maths', 'science', 'english']}

but want output mentioned above.

can help?

here solution:

  dic = dict()   open('txt', 'r') fh:      l in fh.readlines():           try:               lines = l.split()               day, sub, num = lines[0], lines[1], [int(x) x in lines[2:]]               dic.setdefault(day, {})               dic[day][sub] = num           except exception er:               print er   print dic 

output:

 {'tuesday': {'science': [45, 53, 76, 78, 54, 78, 34, 99, 55, 100, 45, 56, 78]},    'wednesday': {'english': [43, 45, 56, 76, 98, 34, 65, 34, 45, 67, 76, 34, 98]},   'monday':  {'maths': [100, 95, 65, 32, 23, 45, 77, 54, 78, 88, 45, 67, 89]}}
