[FIXED] AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'values' in Spyder

Issue

I have a dictionary called sortdi with keys as integers and values as strings. I want to store the values into a dataset so I created the following code

sortdi = sortFreqDict(dictonary)
dataset = sortdi.values()

When I try to run the code, the error that shows up is ,

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'values'

What do I do to store values into the dataset ?

Solution

It looks like the sortFreqDict function returns a list not a dictionary. To add to a list you use list.append().

Try printing sortdi and see if that gives you what you were hoping for?
