Get all values from nested dictionaries in python
dictionary, nested, python
Solution
Just to give an answer to this topic, copying my solution from the "updating status" of my question:
[x['answer'] for x in a['b']['c'].values()]
Hope this can help.
Problem
I have some dictionaries of dictionaries, like this: ``` a['b']['c']['d']['answer'] = answer1 a['b']['c']['e']['answer'] = answer2 a['b']['c']['f']['answer'] = answer3 .... a['b']['c']['d']['conf'] = conf1 a['b']['c']['e']['conf'] = conf2 a['b']['c']['f']['conf'] = conf3 ``` Is there a fast way to get a list of values of all answers for all elements at the third level (d,e,f)? Specifically I'd like to know if there's any mechanism implementing a wildcard (e.g., `a['b']['c']['*']['answer'].values()` update The fastest way I've found till now is: ``` [x['answer'] for x in a['b']['c'].values()] ```
