To get this combine second and third into the list of values and then build
the final dict using it:
>>> first = ['a', 'b', 'c']
>>> second = [1, 2, 3]
>>> third = [1.20, 1.23, 2.54]
>>> values = zip(second, third)
>>> values
[(1, 1.2), (2, 1.23), (3, 2.54)]
>>> dict(zip(first, values))
{'a': (1, 1.2), 'c': (3, 2.54), 'b': (2, 1.23)}
If tuples as values are not acceptable:
values = map(list, values)
