Group names by country
Level: Beginner (score: 2)
In this Bite you are presented with a list of surnames, names, and countries. These 3 fields are in a multiline string, separated by a comma.
Code group_names_by_country, looping through the list, returning a collections.defaultdict where the keys are countries and the values are lists of concatenated names and surnames. The order of the keys (countries) and the value lists (names) does not matter.
Here is an example of a possible input to your function:
data = """last_name,first_name,country_code Watsham,Husain,ID Harrold,Alphonso,BR Apdell,Margo,CN Tomblings,Deerdre,RU Wasielewski,Sula,ID Jeffry,Rudolph,TD Brenston,Luke,SE Parrett,Ines,CN Braunle,Kermit,PL Halbard,Davie,CN"""
... and the output your function should return:
defaultdict(<class 'list'>,
{'BR': ['Alphonso Harrold'],
'CN': ['Margo Apdell', 'Ines Parrett', 'Davie Halbard'],
'ID': ['Husain Watsham', 'Sula Wasielewski'],
'PL': ['Kermit Braunle'],
'RU': ['Deerdre Tomblings'],
'SE': ['Luke Brenston'],
'TD': ['Rudolph Jeffry']})
