Is there a Pythonic way to assign the values of a dictionary to its keys, in order to convert the dictionary entries into variables? I tried this out: >>> d = {'a':1, 'b':2} >>> for key,val in d.items(): exec('exec(key)=val') exec(key)=val ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax I am certain that the key-value pairs are correct because they were previously defined as variables by me before. I then stored these variables in a dictionary (as key-value pairs) and would like to reuse them in a different function. I could just define them all over again in the new function, but because I may have a dictionary with about 20 entries, I thought there may be a more efficient way of doing this. Continue reading...
