>So my question is if I am giving multiple inputs(a new device say for example) in a loop and creating a database(dictionary) for each new devices for example. I want subsequent devices to save their data(values only not keys) to the database of each of the already existing devices. How can I do that? Any hint?I have been stuck here for 3 days.

	It would really help to see samples of what you input looks like (it
doesn't have to match your assignment test data, but should be something
similar in shape and usage), and what you visualize the end result should
look like.

	And you linking of "database" to "dictionary" is not helping -- not
when you then state "the database of each of"... "database", in the least
precise usage, tends to refer to the overall collection of persisted
(something in files) data used by an application (under this usage, an .INI
file is a "database" of configuration data). In the more restricted usage,
a database is a collection of (multiple sets of) similar records of data
accessed by some sort of key, with linkages between sets.

	I can't tell, from your description, if you are using
"database(dictionary)" in terms of a simple BDB structure (unique key :
data /record/), where each record would be one of your "devices", or if you
mean that the record itself is a dictionary structure with (fieldID :
value) pairs, and you want to create a linear list of these items (in which
case you have to search the whole list to find a particular record), or
maybe a dictionary of dictionaries... Or maybe you are trying to create a
tree in which subsequent "devices" are linked to various previous device
nodes.

	Code for any of those forms is not overly difficult, but one must lock
down the data structures before creating the code.
