How to get certain element from OrderedDict?

Question

I'm doing some reverse Geo coding to convert latitude and longitude to a location name:

def reverseGeocode(coordinates): result = rg.search(coordinates) print(result) if __name__ == "__main__": coord = (-33.936952777777776, 18.39005) reverseGeocode(coord)

Result has following format:

[OrderedDict([('lat', '-33.92584'), ('lon', '18.42322'), ('name', 'Cape Town'), ('admin1', 'Western Cape'), ('admin2', 'City of Cape Town'), ('cc', 'ZA')])]

How can i get to certain element of this OrderedDict to have just a location 'name'? That would be 'Cape Town' in this example.

In the same way you retrieve the "name" key from an ordinary dict. An OrderedDict has only a special string representation. — Michael Butscher

What is your question, exactly? If you want to know how to use a dictionary, then that's been asked before. As @MichaelButscher pointed out, you have a list of OrderedDicts, it isn't clear if you understand that. — AMC
