I have a nested list , how do I convert this into a dictionary
data = [["Employee","Salary","Age","Gender"],["001",1200,25,"M"],["002",1300,28,"M"],["003",1400,32,"M"],["004",1700,44,"F"]]
where the dictionary should read the below
dict = {'Employee':['001','002','003','004'],'Salary':[1200,1300,1400,1700],'Age':[25,28,32,44],'Gender':['M','M','M','F']}
I have tried to change into Pandas DataFrame and converted that into dictionary.
But I am looking for a direct conversion from list into dictionary
Will appreciate your kind help. Expecting answers in Python 3

One way is to use zip, which iterates through i th element of each list sequentially:
data = [["Employee","Salary","Age","Gender"],
["001",1200,25,"M"],
["002",1300,28,"M"],
["003",1400,32,"M"],
["004",1700,44,"F"]]
d = {k: v for k, *v in zip(*data)}
Unpacking via *v, as suggested by @Jean-FrançoisFabre, ensures your values are lists.
Result
{'Age': [25, 28, 32, 44],
'Employee': ['001', '002', '003', '004'],
'Gender': ['M', 'M', 'M', 'F'],
'Salary': [1200, 1300, 1400, 1700]}
Another way is to use pandas:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(data[1:], columns=data[0]).to_dict('list')
# {'Age': [25, 28, 32, 44],
# 'Employee': ['001', '002', '003', '004'],
# 'Gender': ['M', 'M', 'M', 'F'],
# 'Salary': [1200, 1300, 1400, 1700]}
