Question

Python

Consider a dictionary, items_for_sale that represents items and their prices.   The dictionary keys are items' names and the values are their prices.

A customer wants to purchase a gift item and would like to pay more than $10 but no more than $20. We would like to create a set that contains only the items in the requested price range. We'll call this new set giftable_items.

Write a set comprehension for this new dictionary.

Example:

giftable_items will be: {'dress', 'scarf', 'pants', 'umbrella', 'belt'}

Note that the order is not important here.

Please note that to get any credit on this question your answer must be in the form of a set comprehension.

Start with:

giftable_items = {

Code:-

#items_for_sale = {'shirt': 8, 'pants': 20, 'shorts': 10, 'dress': 12,
                  #'hat': 22, 'belt': 15, 'scarf': 19, 'umbrella': 11,
                  #'coat': 50, 'shoes': 30, 'lotion': 5, 'candle': 7}
#variable for dictionary
items_for_sale={}
#variable for set
giftable_items=set()
#variable for while looping
addGift='yes'
#loop for entering data into dictionary
while addGift=='yes':
    #user prompt to enter item name
    k=input("Enter gift item name :")
    #user prompt to enter item price
    v=input("Enter price of the gift item :")
    items_for_sale[k]=int(v)
    #yes/no question for next data enter
    addGift = input('Would you like to add another Gift? (yes or no): ')
    #end of while loop
    if addGift == 'no':
        break
#for loop to get set values
#get item name as key and price as value
for key,value in items_for_sale.items():
    #compare price greater than 10 and less than equal20
    if value>10 and value<=20:
        #add item name in set
        giftable_items.add(key)
#print set
print ('giftable_items will be:',giftable_items)
