Show each key-value of a dictionary print on a new line in Python

In this tutorial, we’ll look at a few alternative techniques to print the contents of a dictionary in Python line by line.

In Python, output each key-value pair from a dictionary on a new line.

There are various ways to print the content of a dictionary in a new line.

We will use six different ways to implement it.

Items in a dictionary are key-value pairs. So, initially, let’s make a dictionary with the names of students and their grades, i.e.

d = {'CodeSpeedy': 97, 
     'Yash:': 93,
     'xyz:': 94}

Now, let’s print it.

print(d)

it will give output like below,

{'CodeSpeedy': 97, 'Yash:': 93, 'xyz:': 94}

Now, let’s learn ways to print in a new line

1)  Input:

import pprint
pretty = pprint.PrettyPrinter(width=10)
pretty.pprint({'CodeSpeedy': 97, 
               'Yash:': 93,
               'xyz:': 94})

Here, we have imported pprint library. which helps us to print key-value in a new line. you can learn more about it here, pprint 

• Output:

{'CodeSpeedy': 97,
'Yash:': 93,
'xyz:': 94}

2)  Input:

d = {'CodeSpeedy': 97, 
               'Yash:': 93,
               'xyz:': 94}
for k, v in d.items():
     print (k, v)

Here, we have used d.items() returns a list of (key, value) and also returns an iterator.

• Output:

CodeSpeedy : 97
Yash : 93
xyz : 94

3) Input:

d = {'CodeSpeedy': 97,
     'Yash:': 93,
     'xyz:': 94 }
[print(key,':',value) for key, value in d.items()]

Here, I have used the same method as above but there is a slight change in way of writing as for loop is mention along with a print statement which is basically for code optimization

• Output:

CodeSpeedy : 97
Yash: : 93
xyz: : 94

4) Input:

d = {'CodeSpeedy': 97, 
     'Yash:': 93,
     'xyz:': 94}
print(str(d).replace(', ',',\n '))

Here, I have used str and replace the functionality of python which is the simplest way to print key-value in new line.

• Output:

{'CodeSpeedy': 97,
'Yash:': 93,
'xyz:': 94}

5) Input:

d = {'CodeSpeedy': 97, 
     'Yash:': 93,
     'xyz:': 94}
for key in d:
    print(key, ' : ', d[key])

Above, We can iterate through a dictionary’s keys one by one, then read each key’s value and output it on a single line.

• Output:

CodeSpeedy : 97
Yash: : 93
xyz: : 94

6) Input:

import json
d = {'CodeSpeedy': 97, 
     'Yash:': 93,
     'xyz:': 94}
print(json.dumps(d, indent=4))

Here, The dumps() method returns a JSON string from a Python object and the indent is to define how many spaces are required.

This gives output in JSON formate

• Output:

{
"CodeSpeedy": 97,
"Yash:": 93,
"xyz:": 94
}
