Question
Why does my dictionary have a syntax error?
Answer
Be sure you’re following the syntax of a dictionary exactly, otherwise you’ll get a syntax error. A dictionary requires:
Using curly braces { }
Key name on the left, colon :
in the middle, and a value on the right
Be sure to put a comma ,
after every value except the last
For example:
my_dict = {
"key1" : 1, # key name : value,
"key2" : 2, # NOTE THE COMMA AT THE END
"key3" : 3
}
