That did not work because list index is not numeric.<br>
<br>Dictionary is an unordered set (list is an ordered set) indexed by a immutable value (e.g. string, numbers, tuple)<br><br>>
But for dictionaries, it is key - value pairs.? But I need key -> multiple values.<br>
<br>That would mean, a dictionary of lists. Dictionary keys cannot be a mutable (i.e. list cannot be a dictionary key) but dictionary's value may be mutable.<br>
