Hi all
I like dict comprehensions, but I don't use them very often, so when I do I
need to look up the format.
I always struggle to find the information in the Library Reference. The
obvious location, Mapping Types, shows various constructors, but not the
comprehension.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#mapping-types-dict
So I turn to Google. It shows a couple of StackOverflow questions, and then
a link to the Data Structures section of the Tutorial, which explains it
succinctly.
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/datastructures.html#dictionaries
I feel that the Library Reference should be updated to include dict
comprehensions.
Just checking here first before I raise a Documentation issue.
