Rewrite this as a friendly two-line text to my landlord: the kitchen tap has been dripping for a week and I'd like someone to look at it this Thursday.

Here is a friendly, two-line draft you can send:


Hi [Landlord's Name], hope you're having a great week! The kitchen tap has had a slow drip for about a week now, and I’d really appreciate it if someone could pop by to take a look at it this Thursday.

Please let me know if that day works for you or what time would be best!

Write a Python function that groups a list of dicts by a key and returns a dict of lists.

Here is a clean and idiomatic way to group a list of dictionaries using Python's built-in collections.defaultdict.

The Function

python
from collections import defaultdict
from typing import Any, Dict, List, Hashable

def group_by_key(items: List[Dict[str, Any]], key: str) -> Dict[Hashable, List[Dict[str, Any]]]:
    """
    Groups a list of dictionaries by a specified key.
    
    :param items: List of dictionaries to group.
    :param key: The dictionary key to group by.
    :return: A dictionary where each key maps to a list of matching dicts.
    """
    grouped = defaultdict(list)
    for item in items:
        if key in item:
            grouped[item[key]].append(item)
            
    return dict(grouped)

Example Usage

python
# Sample data
users = [
    {"name": "Alice", "role": "Admin"},
    {"name": "Bob", "role": "Member"},
    {"name": "Charlie", "role": "Admin"},
    {"name": "Diana", "role": "Guest"},
]

# Group by the 'role' key
result = group_by_key(users, "role")

print(result)

Output:

python
{
    "Admin": [
        {"name": "Alice", "role": "Admin"},
        {"name": "Charlie", "role": "Admin"}
    ],
    "Member": [
        {"name": "Bob", "role": "Member"}
    ],
    "Guest": [
        {"name": "Diana", "role": "Guest"}
    ]
}

Key Highlights

  • Performance: Runs in $O(N)$ time complexity with a single pass over the list.
  • Safe: Uses if key in item to gracefully skip entries where the grouping key does not exist.
  • Clean return: Converts defaultdict back to a standard dict at the end to prevent unexpected behavior downstream.
