Is there a better way to create a dictionary with key and value from a list of dictionaries dynamically?

input:

input = [
    {'key': '1', 'value': 'a'},
    {'key': '2', 'value': 'b'},
    {'key': '3', 'value': 'c'}
]

output

{
    "1": "a",
    "2": "b",
    "3": "c"
}

What I’ve tried:

output = {list(entry.values())[0]: list(entry.values())[1] for entry in input}
print(output) #{'1': 'a', '2': 'b', '3': 'c'}

My question is there a better way of doing this instead of each entry get list of values and access to the first or second!

Any suggestion of doing it in a more simple way!

>Solution :

As entry is a dict, access the data using the keys, that is how you should manipulate a dict

values = [
    {'key': '1', 'value': 'a'},
    {'key': '2', 'value': 'b'},
    {'key': '3', 'value': 'c'}
]

output = {entry['key']: entry['value'] for entry in values}

input is the python builtin method for reading user input, don’t use it as a variable name
