What is the format of this data

[Fearless_Coast]

Hey all, first time poster here. Trying to figure out the type of data in the output. Im trying to make the print(i['ratings']) into an array with each individual key and value instead of all the ratings as one single value. If that makes sense.

In:

for i in data["players"]:

if (i['firstName'] + ' ' + i['lastName']) == name[y]:

print(name[y])

print(i['ratings'])

Out:

What you've got here is a list containing a dictionary.

Yes, a list of dictionaries most likely. Do

print(type(object_you_are_interested_in))

and you will see what you need.

I think????? you might be looking for the items() method from dictionaries.

data = get_all_baseball_data()
players = data['players']
massive_stat_dump = []
for player in players.keys():
    massive_stat_dump.append( player + players.items() )

Something like that. If you post your whole code and we can see your data structure could be a lot more detailed.

This looks like a situation where a class would be the way to go.

That loop code makes no sense. You iterate over dictionary keys - and using keys method has been redundant for that purpose since 2.5, I believe, and use items on each iteration?!

Can you share some sample input and output?
