How to store user input in dictionary Python

In this article, we will learn to store user input in dictionary in Python.

You can input both keys and values using input() method and process it to separate the keys and values.

class_list = dict() 
n = 5
for i in range(n):

	data = input('Enter key & value separated by ":", ') 
	temp = data.split(':') 
	class_list[temp[0]] = temp[1] 
print()
# Displaying the dictionary 
for key, value in class_list.items(): 
	print('Key: {}, Value: {}'.format(key, value)) 

Output:

Enter key & value separated by ":", 1:dia
Enter key & value separated by ":", 2:kiya
Enter key & value separated by ":", 3:sia
Enter key & value separated by ":", 4:lia
Enter key & value separated by ":", 5:piya

Key: 1, Value: dia
Key: 2, Value: kiya
Key: 3, Value: sia
Key: 4, Value: lia
Key: 5, Value: piya
