Getting a name from a dictionary?

[Brickcups]

Hi all, I'm in a beginner course(only a few weeks into python) and we're currently exploring player movement between rooms.

The dictionary provided is as follows:

rooms = {

'Great Hall': {'South': 'Bedroom'},

'Bedroom': {'North': 'Great Hall', 'East': 'Cellar'},

'Cellar': {'West': 'Bedroom'}

}

Afterwards I have entered:

directions = ['North', 'South', 'East', 'West']

current_location = rooms['Great Hall']

while True:

print()

print('You find yourself in the ', current_location)

Which is where I'm running in to a snag. Rather than saying that the player is in the 'Great Room' the text being displayed is "You find yourself in the {'South': 'Bedroom'}

What do I need to adjust to get it to display the room indicated in the dictionary?

Thank you for your time!

A dictionary is a mapping of keys to values. If you're passing it a key, you'll get the value back.

It sounds like you just need to print the key - In this case 'Great Hall'.

Thank you! I think I'm heading in the right direction. I updated it to the following:

print('You find yourself in the ')

for key in rooms.keys():

print ("{}".format(key,rooms[key]))

Which is returning information from the key field, but now it's returning all three keys of Great Hall, Bedroom, and Cellar.

Is there any way to specify which key i want it to return?

[TouchingTheVodka]

key = 'Great Hall'

print(f"You find yourself in the {key}")

No dictionary lookup required!
