Use dictionary comprehension technique.
We have dictionary object having name and percentage of students
>>> marks = { 'Ravi': 45.23, 'Amar': 62.78, 'Ishan': 20.55, 'Hema': 67.20, 'Balu': 90.75 }
To obtain dictionary of name and marks of students with percentage>50
>>> passed = { key:value for key, value in marks.items() if value > 50 } >>> passed {'Amar': 62.78, 'Hema': 67.2, 'Balu': 90.75}
To obtain subset of given names
>>> names = { 'Amar', 'Hema', 'Balu' } >>> lst = { key:value for key,value in marks.items() if key in names} >>> lst {'Amar': 62.78, 'Hema': 67.2, 'Balu': 90.75}
