Mapping lowercase letters to their ASCII values

Creates a dictionary called ascii_mapping that maps each lowercase letter of the English alphabet to its corresponding ASCII value. Here's what the code does:

  • ascii_mapping = {char: ord(char) for char in 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'}: This line creates the ascii_mapping dictionary using a dictionary comprehension. Here's how it works:
    • {char: ord(char) for char in 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'} is the dictionary comprehension. It iterates over each character (char) in the string 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.
    • For each character, it creates a key-value pair in the dictionary. The key (char) is the character itself, and the value (ord(char)) is the ASCII value of that character obtained using the ord function.
  • print(ascii_mapping): This line prints the ascii_mapping dictionary to the console.

Source Code

ascii_mapping = {char: ord(char) for char in 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'}
print(ascii_mapping)
