Using dictionaries stored in another jupyter notebook

[ck25python]

Hi There,

I have thousands of dictionaries saved in one jupyter notebook (controlled by IT), and i would like to utitlize some of the dicitonies in to my jupyter notebook.Is there a way i can achieve this.

Example: IT-Jupyter notebook contains below dictionary (just a sample):

dict_sample={'HR':'Human Resource','FIN':'Finance','LG':'Legal'}

I would like to utilize above dictionary in to my jupyter notebook. Dummy df created below for reference.

data = {'name': ['John', 'Aaron', 'Anie'], 
        'Dept': ['HR', 'FIN', 'LG']}
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns = ['name','Dept'])

df["Dept"]=df["Dept"].map(dict_sample)

df

You can use dump function of pickle in this way.First dump this dictionary in a pickle file.

import pickle

a = {'HR':'Human Resource','FIN':'Finance','LG':'Legal'}

with open('filename.pickle', 'wb') as handle:
    pickle.dump(a, handle, protocol=pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL)

#Now you will have this file, take this to your PC , save it in same #folder as Jupiter notebook you are working in
with open('filename.pickle', 'rb') as handle:
    b = pickle.load(handle)

b contains your dictionary.
You can also load data in pandas and then save it as csv file.
