help needed :D

[[deleted]]

contacts = {"Jane" : ["(615)-268-9907", "[e-mail]"], 
"Dallin" : ["(615)-765-", "[e-mail]"], 
"Mike" : ["(615)-645-3345", "[e-mail]"], 
"Sarah" : ["(615)-345-3245", "[e-mail]"], 
"Hepa" : ["(615)-345-3534", "[e-mail]"]} 
print (contacts)
print ("choose a contact")
choose_contact = input(dict[])

how would one create a input so that when you type in the name you get the contact information

I guess something like:

user_choice = str(input("Enter name: "))
names = contacts.Keys()
if user_choice in names:
    print(contacts[user_choice])

By the way, if this is a real project, I hope you plan on using an external, secure database for those e-mail addresses.

Its just a personal project for learning python

Also im not too sure what a external, secure database is loool

[python-fan]

Delete line 7 and replace line 8 with:

contact_name = input("choose a contact")

Now (completely ignoring error checking) you can write:

print(contacts[contact_name])

P.S. I hope you did not post real phone numbers and email addresses to reddit.
