brand = [1,2,3]
consider this is the list I want to add to the list of dictionaries below
r = [{'time':1, 'id':1 'region':[{brand:1}]}]
and every time I add the element I want the dictionary to create new dictionary within the list Exampel:
r = [{'time':1, 'id':1 'region':[{brand:1}, {'time':1, 'id':1 'region':[{brand:2}] {'time':1, 'id':1 'region':[{brand:3}]}
I am new to python and not able to figure out how to do it. Thanks in advance

Answer
This should work:
l = [1,2,3] r = [] for i in l: new_dict = {'time':1, 'id':1, 'region':[{"brand":i}]} r.append(new_dict)
Output:
[{'id': 1, 'region': [{'brand': 1}], 'time': 1}, {'id': 1, 'region': [{'brand': 2}], 'time': 1}, {'id': 1, 'region': [{'brand': 3}], 'time': 1}]
Edit To address you question in the comment: bear in mind that this will always work in as much as brand
and time
are of the same length.
brand = [1,2,3] time = [1,2,3] r = [] for i in range(len(l)): new_dict = {'time':time[i], 'id':1, 'region':[{"brand":brand[i]}]} r.append(new_dict)
