Hey DaveA,
I am using Python 2.7.
Yes. I have a dict of dicts with keys ranging from 1..100
And the value of each of these keys is another dict. What I need to do is make 3 smaller dicts and assign the values of keys 1..100 in the ratio 2:3:5.
For example, if my original dict is 

d={"1":{"Key1":"Value1", "Key2":"Value2", "Key3":"Value3"}, 
   "2":{"Key1":"Value1", "Key2":"Value2", "Key3":"Value3"}, 
   "3":{"Key1":"Value1", "Key2":"Value2", "Key3":"Value3"}, 
   "4":{"Key1":"Value1", "Key2":"Value2", "Key3":"Value3"}}
   ...
   ...
  "100":{"Key1":"Value1", "Key2":"Value2", "Key3":"Value3"}

I need to have three dicts d1, d2, d3 with d1 containing the values of first 20 keys, d2 containing the values on next 30 keys and d3 containing the values of the next 50.
Can you please help me with this?
