Re: appending key-value pairs to a dict

I know how to setup an empty list and loop thru something... appending to the list on each loop... how does this work with dicts?

I'm looping thru a list of files and I want to put the file's name and its sha hash into a dict on each loop. 

Like so:

d = {}
for filename in files:
    d[sha_func(filename)] = filename


Or like so:

d = dict([(sha_func(filename), filename) for filename in files])
