If we load the keys and values using fromkeys on dic.
Later the modification in the values is reflects for all keys in the DIC, please follow the below code.

Workaround is replace the below 2 lines with "result ={D_IP:[] for D_IP in input}"

==========================
result = {}
result = result.fromkeys(input,[])  >>>> Issue with this line
==========================

Also observed that ID of the values are pointing same, its ok.
But if some one later modified that values which causes the un-usual output.

>>> id(result['1'])
38121184
>>> id(result['2'])
38121184

This is similar to the problem of building a list by repeating one item: <https://docs.python.org/2.7/faq/programming.html#how-do-i-create-a-multidimensional-list>.

With dict.fromkeys(), the resulting dictionary maps each specified key object to the one and only value object (empty list) you passed to fromkeys(). If you look up one of the keys, it returns the list object. If you modify that object, all references to that object will see the update.

The difference with the dictionary comprehension workaround is that the interpreter executes the expressions “D_IP” and “[]” once for each iteration of “input”, resulting in a new empty list instance each iteration. But when you call fromkeys(), you pass a single object. The fromkeys() method just copies references; it does not create objects itself.

If the id() function returns the same identity, it means you have two references to the same underlying object instance. This is the same as checking “result['1'] is result['2']”.

I suggest to close this as not a bug.

Thanks Martin , I will close it.
