I want to combine these:
keys = ['name', 'age', 'food']
values = ['Monty', 42, 'spam']
Into a single dictionary:
{'name': 'Monty', 'age': 42, 'food': 'spam'}

Use zip
to create a list of (key, value)
tuples, then apply the dict
constructor:
keys = ['a', 'b', 'c']
values = [1, 2, 3]
dictionary = dict(zip(keys, values))
print(dictionary)
Output:
{'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}
