Answer 1

Hii Mohammad Shireen

One way is - dict(zip([1,2,3,4], [a,b,c,d]))

If you have more keys than values, and you want to fill in values for the extra keys, you can use - itertools.izip_longest.

Now see that If the lists are big you should use itertools.izip ..

Example -
i = iter(["a", "a", "b", "c", "b"])
j = iter([1,2,3,4,5])
k = list(zip(i, j))
for (x,y) in k:
if x in d:
d[x] = d[x] + y #or whatever your function needs to be to combine them
else:
d[x] = y

Answer 2

Use builtin zip function
```
keys = [1,2]
values = ["a","b"]

print(dict(zip(keys,values)))
```
