  • Just want to make clear that I'm new to coding....the above is a sample data set.Just want to know what should be the approach. for example : the above dataset type is list so should I convert it to dictionary etc.Please correct me if I'm wrong. – Vishnu Sreenivasan Nov 22 '19 at 07:27
  • Let's say the name of the list is `data`, then initialize a dict, `d = {}`. Then iterate over the list and add the the country names as key with vaue 0 to the dictionary if it does not already exists, otherwise add 1 to it. `d = {person['Birth Country'] : d.get('Birth Country',0) + 1 for person in data}` – Sayandip Dutta Nov 22 '19 at 07:37

If you want to find, how many person belong to same birth country only from given list of dict, you can use the following code :

from collections import Counter

li = [each['Birth City'] for each in val if each['Birth City']]
print(dict(Counter(li)))

OUTPUT

{'Rotterdam': 1, 'Paris': 1}
