"age":"38",
"status":"Married"
}
]
employees_brief=[]
employees_brief=[{"name":"John doe","age":"34"},{"name":"smith","age":"38"}]

Answer 1

To create a new list of dictionaries containing only the keys 'name' and 'age' from the given list of dictionaries, you can loop through each dictionary and extract the desired keys and values.

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a second list of dictionaries containing only the keys 'name' and 'age' from the given list of dictionaries, you can loop over each dictionary in the 'employees' list, create a new dictionary with the desired keys and corresponding values, and append it to the 'employees_brief' list.

Here is the Python code to achieve this:

employees = [{'name': 'John Doe', 'job': 'Software Engineer', 'City': 'Mumbai', 'age': '34', 'status': 'single'}, {'name': 'Smith', 'job': 'Director', 'city': 'New York', 'age': '38', 'status': 'Married'}]employees_brief = []

for emp in employees:
brief_info = {'name': emp['name'], 'age': emp['age']}
employees_brief.append(brief_info)

After executing the above code, the 'employees_brief' list will contain dictionaries with only the 'name' and 'age' keys:

employees_brief = [{'name': 'John Doe', 'age': '34'}, {'name': 'Smith', 'age': '38'}]
