Python: Remove duplicate dictionary from a given list

Python List: Exercise - 113 with Solution

Write a Python program to remove duplicate dictionary entries from a given list.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

def remove_duplicate_dictionary(list_color):
    result = [dict(e) for e in {tuple(d.items()) for d in list_color}]
    return result

list_color = [{'Green': '#008000'}, {'Black': '#000000'}, {'Blue': '#0000FF'}, {'Green': '#008000'}]
print ("Original list with duplicate dictionary:")
print(list_color)
print("\nAfter removing duplicate dictionary of the said list:")
print(remove_duplicate_dictionary(list_color))

Sample Output:

Original list with duplicate dictionary:
[{'Green': '#008000'}, {'Black': '#000000'}, {'Blue': '#0000FF'}, {'Green': '#008000'}]

After removing duplicate dictionary of the said list:
[{'Black': '#000000'}, {'Blue': '#0000FF'}, {'Green': '#008000'}]

Python: Tips of the Day

Given a predicate function, fn, and a prop string, this curried function will then take an object to inspect by calling the property and passing it to the predicate:

Example:

def tips_check_prop(fn, prop):
  return lambda obj: fn(obj[prop])
check_age = tips_check_prop(lambda x: x >= 25, 'age')
user = {'name': 'Owen', 'age': 25}

print(check_age(user))

Output:

True
