changing single list items value in dictionary with multi-values

Question

this is the following

data = {"A": [["a", 4, 4.50],["b", 5, 3.50]], "C": [["c", 7, 27.00],["d", 1, 7.99]]}

if I want to change only 3rd items of 2nd value of key "C" (["d", 1, (7.99)])

into like

date =  {"A": [["a", 4, 4.50],["b", 5, 3.50]], "C": [["c", 7, 27.00],["d", 1, 5.25]]}

how would you update the value inside of 2D list?

Answer 1

I guess you mean:

data['C'][1][2] = 5.25

so what this does is get the key 'C', gets the second list and then the third item of that list.

Then I suppose you would just do date = data if that isn't a typo.
