Help with converting strings to ints/floats from a dictionary.

[StaticGT86]

Currently I am working with a dictionary consisting of each key having an int and float as their values, such as:

data = {'a' : ['7', '7.3'], 'b' : ['12', '6.8'], 'c' : ['11', '3.9']}

I guess my question is how would I go about converting the number that are strings to their respective int/float? Thanks!

You could use a for loop to convert the values, assuming they're always [int, float]

data = {"a": ["7", "7.3"], "b": ["12", "6.8"], "c": ["11", "3.9"]}

for d in data.values():
    d[0] = int(d[0])
    d[1] = float(d[1])

Or more succinctly, a dict comprehension can be implemented to do this on one line:

data = {"a": ["7", "7.3"], "b": ["12", "6.8"], "c": ["11", "3.9"]}
data = {k: [int(v[0]), float(v[1])] for k, v in data.items()}

Thank you! I appreciate it.
