python - Find a value in a dictionary by searching using an inexact / not complete string -


hi i'm learning python , i'm facing problem dictionaries:

i made dictionary contains shows , number of seasons have

all_shows = {'modern family': 3 , 'how met mother': 9 , "modern world" : 12 }

and made possible user number of season searching name of show 

showname = input('<<enter show: >>') season = (all_shows.get(showname))  print (season)

the problem number of season returned if user writes exact name of show. i'm trying fix if user write "modern" shows "modern" in title ( if write in lower case) , can select show 1 wants.

i looked online , found fuzzywuzzy. think me achieving want? thought using similar show title 1 selected, if wrote " how met mother " result still " 9 " , if wrote " modern " list follow select shows contains "modern" 1 wants.

is fuzzywuzzy looking or there other ways that?

regular expressions friends.

import re  all_shows = {'modern family': 3, 'how met mother': 9, "modern world": 12}  input = 'modern'  rs = {x: y x, y  in all_shows.items() if re.match('.*%s.*' % input, x, re.ignorecase)}  print(rs)

output:

{'modern world': 12, 'modern family': 3}

if user inputs odern output still 2 shows modern xxxx name

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } ...
