Creates a dictionary with the same keys as the provided dictionary and values generated by running the provided function for each value.
|
|
|
|
Use `dict.keys()` to iterate over the dictionary's keys, assigning the values produced by `fn` to each key of a new dictionary.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
def map_values(obj, fn):
|
|
ret = {}
|
|
for key in obj.keys():
|
|
ret[key] = fn(obj[key])
|
|
return ret
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
users = {
|
|
'fred': { 'user': 'fred', 'age': 40 },
|
|
'pebbles': { 'user': 'pebbles', 'age': 1 }
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
map_values(users, lambda u : u['age']) # {'fred': 40, 'pebbles': 1}
|
|
```
