Conditional looping with a dictionary
Your friend at LLM Camp has provided you with a dictionary called courses. It contains the names of courses as keys and their associated topic as a value. There are three topics: "AI", "Programming", and "Data Engineering".
courses = {"LLM Concepts": "AI",
"Introduction to Data Pipelines": "Data Engineering",
"AI Ethics": "AI",
"Introduction to dbt": "Data Engineering",
"Writing Efficient Python Code": "Programming",
"Introduction to Docker": "Programming"}
This is a great chance to practice looping through dictionaries!
This exercise is part of the course
Introduction to Python for Developers
Exercise instructions
- Create a for loop to iterate over
key,valueincourses.items(). - Check if the
valueis"AI", and print thekeyif so. - Else, check if the
valueis"Programming", printing thekeyif so. - Otherwise, print the
keyto confirm it is a"Data Engineering"course.
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Loop through the dictionary's keys and values
____ key, value ____ courses.items():
# Check if the value is "AI"
____ ____ ____ "____":
print(____, "is an AI course")
# Check if the value is "Programming"
____ ____ ____ "____":
print(____, "is a Programming course")
# Otherwise, print that it is a "Data Engineering" course
____:
print(____, "is a Data Engineering course")
