How to put space in a regular interval?

Question

My problem is similar to this.

Instead of populating the dictionary with a single number, I want to populate this with a string of numbers. I've got a long string of numbers separated at interval 7 by a comma.

I've got something like this,

values = '123456,789101,2345678' # (a string of numbers)

keys = [1,2,3]

I want to create a dictionary like something below:

my_dict = {1: '123456', 2: '789101', 3: '2345678'}

Does key always start at `1` and is strictly increasing with `1`? — Ludisposed, Jun 13 '17 at 06:59
`values` appears to be a tuple of integers, but you are saying it is a *string* of numbers? Can you please clarify? — Martijn Pieters, Jun 13 '17 at 07:02
Given that you responded to one of the answers with 'Works perfectly fine', I've updated both your input and your expected output to match the assumptions that answerer made (input is a string with digits and commas, output dictionary values are strings too). — Martijn Pieters, Jun 13 '17 at 07:13

Try this:

>>> values = '123456,789101,2345678'
>>> 
>>> keys = [1,2,3]
>>> 
>>> 
>>> dict(zip(keys, values.split(',')))
{1: '123456', 2: '789101', 3: '2345678'}
>>>

You could do something like this:

>>> values = '123456,789101,2345678'
>>> my_dict = {i+1:j for i,j in enumerate(values.split(','))}

Outputs

>>> print (my_dict) 
>>> {1: '123456', 2: '789101', 3: '2345678'}

`enumerate()` also has a `start` parameter, you could use this to avoid adding `1` each time. – Martin Evans Jun 13 '17 at 07:01
Thanks for improving. But now vishes has a shorter way with enumurate so i'll just leave it like this for diversity – Ludisposed Jun 13 '17 at 07:03
yeah!! Works perfectly fine. Thanks – Bassmanity Jun 13 '17 at 07:06

In [1]: values = '123456,789101,2345678'

In [2]: dict(enumerate(values.split(','), 1))
Out[2]: {1: '123456', 2: '789101', 3: '2345678'}
