Question

Create a new program in Mu and save it as ps4.5.1.py and take the code below and fix it as indicated in the comments:

# Write a function called phonebook that takes two lists as
# input:
#
# - names, a list of names as strings
# - numbers, a list of phone numbers as strings
#
# phonebook() should take these two lists and create a
# dictionary that maps each name to its phone number. For
# example, the first name in names should become a key in
# the dictionary, and the first number in numbers should
# become the value corresponding to the first name. Then, it
# should return the dictionary that results.
#
# Hint: Because you're mapping the first name with the first
# number, the second name with the second number, etc., you do
# not need two loops. For a similar exercise, check back on
# Coding Problem 4.3.3, the Scantron grading problem.
#
# You may assume that the two lists have the same number of
# items: there will be no names without numbers or numbers
# without names.

# Write your function here!

# Below are some lines of code that will test your function.
# You can change the value of the variable(s) to test your
# function with different inputs.
#
# If your function works correctly, this will originally
# print (although the order of the keys may vary):
# {'Jackie': '404-555-1234', 'Joshua': '678-555-5678', 'Marguerite': '770-555-9012'

name_list = ['Jackie', 'Joshua', 'Marguerite']
number_list = ['404-555-1234', '678-555-5678', '770-555-9012']
print(phonebook(name_list, number_list))

Answer 1

def phonebook(name_list, number_list): return dict(zip(name_list, number_list))#use zip if we are not using loops|| name_list = ['Jackie', 'Joshua', 'Marguerite'] number_list = ['404-555-1234', '678-555-5678', '770-555-9012'] print(phonebook(name_list, number_list))

def phonebook(name_list,number_list):
return dict(zip(name_list,number_list))#use zip if we are not using loops
  

name_list = ['Jackie', 'Joshua', 'Marguerite']
number_list = ['404-555-1234', '678-555-5678', '770-555-9012']
print(phonebook(name_list,number_list))

Input {'Marguerite': '770-555-9012', 'Joshua': '678-555-5678', 'Jackie': '404-555-1234"}
