I have a dict and input like that, and now I want to it can search the input even though it is only part of key words, so how to solve it?
input = "a" dict = {'aaa':111,'bbb':222,'ccc':333} print(dict[input])
P.S Assuming there is no conflict between input and dict keywords, for example,
input ='a' dict = {'aaa':111,'abc':222}
is impossible

Answer
If there can be no conflict, or if you’re happy to take the first key that matches the input if there is, you could search the keys to find one which starts with the input string:
input = "a" dic = {'aaa':111,'bbb':222,'ccc':333} dic[[k for k in dic.keys() if k.startswith(input)][0]]
Output:
111
