python-multi_key_dict-2.0.3-1.lbn19.noarch

Implementation of a multi-key dictionary, i.e.:

(key1[,key2, ..]) => value

This dictionary has a similar interface to the standard dictionary => but is extended to support multiple keys referring to the same element.

These elements can be accessed using either of those keys (e.g for read/update/deletion).

Multi-key dict provides also extended interface for iterating over items and keys (e.g. by the key type), which might be useful when creating, e.g. dictionaries with index-name key pair allowing to iterate over items using either: names or indexes. It can be useful for many many other similar use-cases, and there is no limit to the number of keys used to map to the value.

There are few other useful methods, e.g. to iterate over dictionary (by/using) selected key type, finding other keys mapping to the same value etc. Refer to example/test code to see it in action.
