There appears to be an update method on dictionaries

Answer 2

Yea Thanku😊..but I don't wanna update as it inserts a new value for the same key, if the key already exists. I wanted to insert another key value pair even if the key has already occurred.
hope u got my point😅

Answer 3

hm not sure that's possible, the point of a dictionary is having a unique key to map to a value, but values need not be unique. Is your dictionary set up correctly?

Answer 4

Actually now I have modified my code a bit

sent=[['this','is','beautiful','and','nice','place'],['nice','place']]
adj=['beautiful','nice']
freq={}
a=1
for c in sent:
for x in c:
if x in adj:
freq [a]={}
freq [a][x]=c.count (x)
a+=1
print (freq)

the output I'm getting is
{1:{'nice':1},2:{'nice':1}}

bt i need the following output,
{1:{'beautiful':1},{'nice':1},2:{'nice':1}}
