Create a dictionary of strings with words containing more than 4 letters
The Python code pocesses a sentence and creates a dictionary named long_words. This dictionary maps words with a length greater than 4 to their respective lengths. Here's how the code works:
- sentence = "Python is a powerful and versatile programming language": This line initializes the sentence variable with a string containing words.
- long_words = {word: len(word) for word in sentence.split() if len(word) > 4}: This line uses a dictionary comprehension to create the long_words dictionary. It splits the sentence into words using sentence.split(), then iterates through each word in the list of words.
- for word in sentence.split(): This part of the code iterates through each word in the sentence.
- if len(word) > 4: This condition checks if the length of the current word is greater than 4 characters.
- {word: len(word)}: If the condition is met, it creates a key-value pair in the dictionary. The key is the word itself, and the value is the length of the word obtained using len(word).
- print(sentence): This line prints the original sentence to the console.
- print(long_words): This line prints the long_words dictionary, which contains words with a length greater than 4 as keys and their respective lengths as values.
Source Code
sentence = "Python is a powerful and versatile programming language"
long_words = {word: len(word) for word in sentence.split() if len(word) > 4}
print(sentence)
print(long_words)
Output
Python is a powerful and versatile programming language
