Maps the values of a list to a dictionary using a function, where the key-value pairs consist of the original value as the key and the result of the function as the value.
|
|
|
|
Use a `for` loop to iterate over the list's values, assigning the values produced by `fn` to each key of the dictionary.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
def map_dictionary(itr, fn):
|
|
ret = {}
|
|
for x in itr:
|
|
ret[x] = fn(x)
|
|
return ret
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
map_dictionary([1,2,3], lambda x: x * x) # { 1: 1, 2: 4, 3: 9 }
|
|
```
