Print a dictionary of lists vertically
dictionary, list, python, python-3.x
Solution
Pretty-printing tables requires a considerable amount of code (table-recipe, pretty-table). It's no fun writing this kind of code on an ad-hoc basis; you might as well use a well-designed module.
If you have pandas, you could dump the dict directly into a DataFrame, and print it like this:
In [4]: import pandas as pd
In [5]: result = {'WeightedLevel': [388.850952, 716.718689, 1312.55957, 2405.087158, 4460.083984, 8543.792969, 18805.201172, 57438.140625, 1792.367554], 'Job': 'Desktop', 'LoadLevel': [0.212399, 0.393191, 0.727874, 1.347436, 2.494368, 4.617561, 8.548006, 15.824027, 1.0], 'Task': 'test', 'Failure': [2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0], 'Blocks': [7255.151855, 231.589661, 9.365415, 0.55364, 0.0504, 0.006408, 0.001204, 0.000842, 2.060041]}
In [6]: pd.DataFrame(result)
Out[6]:

[9 rows x 6 columns]
Here is a way to print the dict in a table-like format without using a third-party module:
import itertools as IT
result = {'WeightedLevel': [388.850952, 716.718689, 1312.55957, 2405.087158, 4460.083984, 8543.792969, 18805.201172, 57438.140625, 1792.367554], 'Job': 'Desktop', 'LoadLevel': [0.212399, 0.393191, 0.727874, 1.347436, 2.494368, 4.617561, 8.548006, 15.824027, 1.0], 'Task': 'test', 'Failure': [2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0], 'Blocks': [7255.151855, 231.589661, 9.365415, 0.55364, 0.0504, 0.006408, 0.001204, 0.000842, 2.060041]}
matrix = zip(*[value if isinstance(value, list) else IT.repeat(value) for key,value in result.items()])
print(''.join(['{:15}'.format(key) for key in result.keys()]))
for row in matrix:
print(''.join(['{:15}'.format(str(item)) for item in row]))
yields

Problem
I want to print the following dictionary of lists vertically: ``` result = {'WeightedLevel': [388.850952, 716.718689, 1312.55957, 2405.087158, 4460.083984, 8543.792969, 18805.201172, 57438.140625, 1792.367554], 'Job': 'Desktop', 'LoadLevel': [0.212399, 0.393191, 0.727874, 1.347436, 2.494368, 4.617561, 8.548006, 15.824027, 1.0], 'Task': 'test', 'Failure': [2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0], 'Blocks': [7255.151855, 231.589661, 9.365415, 0.55364, 0.0504, 0.006408, 0.001204, 0.000842, 2.060041]} ``` So it should look like that: ``` Job Task LoadLevel Blocks Failure WeightedLevel Desktop test 4546543 4384284 0,46544564 0,1354385 474454 978456 2 9655 9655 55654 966 665 ``` and etc... I have tried some codes that I found online, but they still print the results horizontally: ``` for k, d in result.items(): print(k + ":", d) ``` and ``` print("\t".join(str(x) for x in result)) ```
