Randomly shuffling a dictionary in Python

Question

Well, the thing is, I had the need to use dictionaries in python, but I realized i couldn't randomly shuffle them. I have to randomly shuffle it, and assign the values to the same dictionary. Any help would be appreciated.

import random
i = 1
name = ""
helper = []
number_of_com = 0
win_0 = []
win_1 = []
win_2 = []
win_3 = []
win_4 = []
win_5 = []
win_6 = []
win_7 = []
win_8 = []
win_9 = []
win_10 = []
print ("Welcome to the Swiss Round Calculator. This project was made by Enes Kristo")
number_of_com = int(input("Please enter the number of the competitors:\n"))
if number_of_com <= 16:
    loop = 3
elif number_of_com <= 32:
    loop = 4
elif number_of_com <= 64:
    loop = 5
elif number_of_com <= 128:
    loop = 6
elif number_of_com <= 256:
    loop = 7
elif number_of_com <= 512:
    loop = 8
elif number_of_com <= 1024:
    loop = 9
else:
    loop = 10
while i <= number_of_com:
    name = str(input("Name of competitor nr."+str(i)+":\n"))
    helper.append([name, 0, 0])
    i += 1
def odd():
    b = 0
    while b <= (number_of_com - 2):

        print ("Player " + str(helper_1[0]) + " is vs player " + str(helper_2[0]) + ".")
        b += 1
    helper_3 = helper[(number_of_com-1)]
    print (str(helper_3[0])+" gets a free win.")

Answer 1

If you're using Python 3.7, where dicts are officially ordered, you can convert the dict items to a list of tuples for shuffling before converting it back to a dict with the dict() constructor:

import random
d = {'a':1, 'b':2, 'c':3, 'd':4}
l = list(d.items())
random.shuffle(l)
d = dict(l)

Answer 2

You can't reshuffle a dictionary. What you can do is create a list of the dictionary's keys and shuffle that in order to achieve a new arbitrary order in which to access the dictionary's contents:

>>> import random
>>> d = {1:2, 3:4, 5:6, 7:8, 9:10}
>>> d
{1: 2, 3: 4, 9: 10, 5: 6, 7: 8}
>>> keys =  list(d.keys())      # Python 3; use keys = d.keys() in Python 2
>>> random.shuffle(keys)
>>> [(key, d[key]) for key in keys]
[(1, 2), (5, 6), (7, 8), (9, 10), (3, 4)]
>>> random.shuffle(keys)
>>> [(key, d[key]) for key in keys]
[(9, 10), (3, 4), (1, 2), (7, 8), (5, 6)]
>>> random.shuffle(keys)
>>> [(key, d[key]) for key in keys]
[(1, 2), (7, 8), (3, 4), (5, 6), (9, 10)]
