How to nest a list into a map?
Hey guys!
I have a single list like this:
[x, y, [1], [2] ... w, z, [3], [4] ... ]
My question is how could i recreate a map which assigns the first 2 as nested maps (or as keys) and the lists within the list as values of the nested maps. Such as it could be expressed as
[ key: x [ key: y, value: [1] [2] ] ]
[ key: w [ key: z value: [3] [4] ] ]
Where 1 and 2 belongs to y which belongs to x.
Where 3 and 4 belongs to z which belongs to w.
Does anyone have an idea how to do this in Elixir?
I am more knowledgeable on python dictionaries. So I was thinking on choosing those elements inside the first list that are “not-list” (x, w) an assign them as keys, and those inside a list (1,2) as values.

That’s not JSON, that’s an elixir map.
It doesn’t imply any ordering of keys as well.
For small maps it might sometimes look like the keys are in order of insertion, but this is due to an implementation detail.
It is better to not assume any order in maps.

Is this a structure you are looking for?

Hello!
Sorry, I do not fully understand your pseudo code.
Could you express desired input and output using elixir terms?
