Python Office Hours

#Office Hours in Python day_in_question = input("Please enter a specific day abbreviation " + \ "(M,T,W,Th,F) to see my office hours: ").capitalize() day_hour = { 'M':'8:30am-9:30am', 'T':'8:30am-10:30am', 'W':'8:30am-9:30am', 'Th':'8:30am-10:30am' } your_visit = day_hour.get(day_in_question[0],"by appointment") print("For your requested day, my office hours are {0}.".format(your_visit))
A simple example with my office hours... that compares user input to dictionary keys and returns the corresponding value. By making the comparison with get(value_to_compare, default_value), the default value of "by appointment" is returned if the user input does not match one of the dictionary keys.
