How to print both strings in a dictionary in Python

How to print both strings in a dictionary in Python

Your problem is that you need to use square brackets([]) instead of parenthesis(()). Like so:

for email in contact_emails:
    print(%s is %s % (contact_emails[email], email)) # notice the []s

But I recommend using the .items()( that would be .iteritems() if your using Python 2.x) attribute of dicts instead:

for name, email in contact_emails.items(): # .iteritems() for Python 2.x
    print(%s is %s % (email, name))

Thanks to @PierceDarragh for mentioning that using .format() would be a better option for your string formatting. eg.

print({} is {}.format(email, name))

Or, as @ShadowRanger has also mentioned that taking advantage of prints variable number arguments, and formatting, would also be a good idea:

print(email, is, name)

A simple way to do this would be using for/in loops to loop through each key, and for each key print each key, and then each value.

Heres how I would do it:

contact_emails = {
    Sue Reyn : [email protected],
    Mike Filt: [email protected],
    Nate Arty: [email protected]
}

for email in contact_emails:
    print (contact_emails[email] +  is  + email)

Hope this helps.
