Deriving len, min, sum of Dictionary Values in Python

As a Python beginner, you may encounter challenges when working with dictionaries, particularly when you want to derive statistics like length, minimum, and sum from the values. Recently, one user faced an issue with calculating these values in a dictionary, and through this guide, we will delve deep into the problem, the approaches taken, and the correct way to achieve the desired result.

The Problem

Given a dictionary named scores, where each key corresponds to a day of the week and each associated value is a list of scores, the user wanted to generate a new dictionary that contains each original key but with values computed using len, min, and sum. The original dictionary was structured as follows:

The user initially tried the following approach, expecting a complete new dictionary with statistics for each day:

However, this code only returned the last computed result:

This left the user confused and eager to understand why it didn’t work as expected.

Analyzing the Initial Attempt

In the attempted code above, the key misunderstanding was in how dictionary assignment works within a loop. Let's break it down:

Each time the loop iterated over a new key-value pair, the variable stat was re-assigned, essentially creating a new dictionary each time.

The structure of the loop meant that only the last iteration's result (Sunday) would remain in stat, as it overwrote the previous entries.

This can be compared to executing separate statements for each day, like this:

The Solution

To accumulate values properly across all iterations, we need to initialize stat as an empty dictionary before the loop and then update it during each iteration. Here’s the corrected code:

Explanation of the Correct Code

Initialization: We start with an empty dictionary stat = {}.

Iteration: As we loop over each key-value pair in the scores dictionary, we add a new key-value pair to stat where the key is the day of the week (k) and the value is a list containing the length of the score list (len(v)), the minimum score (min(v)), and the sum of scores (sum(v)).

Final Output: This approach results in a dictionary containing the computed statistics for all keys.

Example Output

Using the corrected code snippet will yield:

Alternative Method: Dictionary Comprehension

An alternative, more concise way to achieve the same result is through dictionary comprehension, which was also mentioned by the user. Here’s how it works:

This one-liner effectively serves the same purpose as the loop, making the code more readable and efficient. However, understanding the iterative approach is crucial for grasping how loops function in Python.

Conclusion

When working with dictionaries in Python, it's essential to understand how to manipulate the data properly. The initial confusion around why only the last entry was stored can be clarified through careful examination of how Python handles variable assignments in loops. Remember to initialize your dictionary outside of the loop to collect all iterations' values effectively. Happy coding!
