Pep8 Compliant Deep Dictionary Access

What is the pep8 compliant way to do deep dictionary access? dct = { 'long_key_name_one': { 'long_key_name_two': { 'long_key_name_three': {

Solution 1:

Perhaps not the best way, but it works:

a = dct['long_key_name_one']['long_key_name_two']
b = a['long_key_name_three']['long_key_name_four']['long_key_name_five']

But this also works, which is the suggested method:

print (dct['long_key_name_one']['long_key_name_two']['long_key_name_three']['long_key_name_four']['long_key_name_five'])

Solution 2:

If you use it inside a function (and you could use print() as a function since 2.7 afaik)

You could just use implicit concatenation within a parentheses

print(dct['long_key_name_one']['long_key_name_two']['long_key_name_three']['long_key_name_four']['long_key_name_five'])
