How to convert a list to a dictionary with indexes as values?

by

You can get the indices of a list from the built-in enumerate. You just need to reverse the index-value map and use a dictionary comprehension to create a dictionary:

>>> lst = ['A', 'B', 'C']
>>> {k: v for v, k in enumerate(lst)}
{'A': 0, 'C': 2, 'B': 1}
