Description

Hello! I was doing the web scraping project in PyCharm and it suggested using a dictionary literal for Lines 27-33. So, instead of:

	resp = {}
	resp['title'] = info[0]
	resp['price'] = info[1]
	resp['tags'] = info[2]
	resp['platforms'] = info[3]
	output.append(resp)

Possible Solutions

PyCharm suggested writing it as:

    resp = {'title': info[0], 'price': info[1], 'tags': info[2], 'platforms': info[3]}
    output.append(resp)

I think this would be good to include since list comprehensions are presented in this chapter too.

I have a bit different suggestion about this:

from collections import namedtuple

Game = namedtuple("Game", "title,price,tags,platforms")

output = [Game(*info)._asdict() for info in zip(titles, prices, tags, platforms)]

Another approach would be to use custom JSON serializer. Illustrated on dataclass instead of namedtuple:

import json
from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass(frozen=True)
class Game:
    title:str
    price:str
    tags:list
    platforms:list

class EnhancedJSONEncoder(json.JSONEncoder):
        def default(self, o):
            if dataclasses.is_dataclass(o):
                return dataclasses.asdict(o)
            return super().default(o)

output = [Game(*info) for info in zip(titles, prices, tags, platforms)]
json.dumps(output, cls=EnhancedJSONEncoder)
