How to access to dictionary value via variables in another list in Django

Question

I have this situation in my views.py

d = {'05:45':3,'06:30':6 (...) }
T = ['05:45','06:30' (...)]

I would like to get d[T[i]] in my HTML site

I tried to call this with dot, but it doesn't work. I will be thankful for help/hint.

"I tried to call this with dot, but it doesn't work." What did you try *exactly*? And how did it not work, *exactly*? — juanpa.arrivillaga, Mar 08 '20 at 20:15
I tried {{ d.{{T.i}} }}, I get an error Could not parse the remainder — wiktorous, Mar 08 '20 at 20:26

Thing you are trying to do is to get element from dictionary using variable. Am I right ? In django template engine it's a little bit tricky, but possible. Use some template tag from this question to acomplish this
