Must have equal len keys and value when setting with an ndarray

An ndarray (N-dimensional array) is a common data structure in many programming languages, including Python. In order to set values with an ndarray, the keys and values must have equal lengths.

Here is an example to illustrate this:


import numpy as np

# Create a 1-dimensional ndarray with 3 elements
keys = np.array(['key1', 'key2', 'key3'])
values = np.array([1, 2, 3])

# Trying to set values with unequal lengths will result in an error
ndarray_dict = {}
ndarray_dict[keys] = values  # This will raise a ValueError because lengths are not equal

In the above example, we have a 1-dimensional ndarray with 3 elements and corresponding keys. When we try to set this ndarray as values in a dictionary using the keys as the keys, it will raise a ValueError because the lengths of the keys and values are not equal.

To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the lengths of the keys and values are equal. Here is an updated example:


import numpy as np

# Create a 1-dimensional ndarray with 3 elements
keys = np.array(['key1', 'key2', 'key3'])
values = np.array([1, 2, 3])

# Ensure that the lengths of keys and values are equal
if len(keys) == len(values):
    ndarray_dict = dict(zip(keys, values))
else:
    print("Lengths of keys and values are not equal.")

In this updated example, we check if the lengths of the keys and values are equal. If they are, we create a new dictionary using the dict(zip(keys, values)) syntax. This will create a dictionary where the keys are the elements from the keys ndarray and the values are the corresponding elements from the values ndarray.

Make sure to apply this logic to your specific use case and adjust it accordingly.
