Question

Good Morning Guys!!
Please help me with my doubt
Question: prepare a Dictionary in python about the product and its price (Both the values entered by the user). Write a program to get the Required dictionary.
I have tried the same spyder 3.7 version.
I have written the following code:

n=int(input("How many products will you like to add = "))
for i in range (1,n+1):
Product=str(input("Enter product name= "))
Price=int(input("Enter price= "))
dict2={Product : Price} * n
print(dict2)

Please tell me where am I wrong...

Answer 1

First of all, you haven't declared the dictionary outside the for loop so that it can be printed after the loop terminates.

Secondly, why are you even multiplying a scalar to a dictionary?

dict2 = {Product : Price} * n

Corrected Program:

   total_items = int(input("Enter total number of items - "))

   item_dict = { }

   for i in range(0, total_items):

      product_name = input("Enter product name - ")

      price = float(input("Enter product price - "))

      item_dict[product_name] = price

   print(item_dict)
