I am on python 2.7 and Linux I have the stdout in the below form , I need to write a function to get hostname for the given id.
Example: >>> stdout 'hostname-1 is array with id 1\nhostname-2 is array with id 2\nhostname-3 is array with id 3\n' def get_hostname(id) return id what's a better option here 1. store it in list and grep for id and return 2. store it in dict as key and value i.e hostname = { 'hostname1': 1} and return key 3. any other simple options.
