Python - Loop Dictionaries

Loop Through a Dictionary

You can loop through a dictionary by using a for loop.

When looping through a dictionary, the return value are the keys of the dictionary, but there are methods to return the values as well.

Print all key names in the dictionary, one by one:

for x in thisdict:
print(x)

Print all values in the dictionary, one by one:

for x in thisdict:
print(thisdict[x])

You can also use the values() method to return values of a dictionary:

for x in thisdict.values():
print(x)

You can use the keys() method to return the keys of a dictionary:

for x in thisdict.keys():
print(x)

Loop through both keys and values, by using the items() method:

for x, y in thisdict.items():
print(x, y)
