How to use list as key of dictionary?

[Davy]

Hi Matimus and Boris,

Thank you :)

And a further question about vector above rank 1, how can I use it as
the key of dictionary?

For example, if I have list like L=[[1,2,3],[4,5,6,7]],
Then I do L_tuple = tuple(L)
>>> L_tuple = ([1,2,3],[4,5,6,7])
But {L_tuple:'hello'} cause an error?

Best regards,
Davy
