python创建空字典并添加元素,在列表中创建字典时，在Python代码中丢失元素？

I have some headache with this python code.

print "length:", len(pub) # length: 420

pub_dict = dict((p.key, p) for p in pub)

print "dict:", len(pub_dict) # length: 163

If I understand this right, I get a dictionary containing the attribute p.key as key and the object p as its value for each element of pub. Are there some side effect I don't see? Because len(pub_dict) should be the same as len(pub) and it is certainly not here, or am I mistaken?

Since you may have several p with the same key then you may use list as value for you key within new dicitionary:

pub_dict = {}

for p in pub:

if not p.key in pub_dict:

pub_dict[p.key] = []

pub_dict[p.key].append(p)

Or if it is neccessary for you to uniquely identify each record you may use any combined key like key + any other p propery value
