ACCEPTED ANSWER

Score 366

Try:

>>> t = ((1, 'a'),(2, 'b'))
>>> dict((y, x) for x, y in t)
{'a': 1, 'b': 2}

ANSWER 2

Score 96

A slightly simpler method:

>>> t = ((1, 'a'),(2, 'b'))
>>> dict(map(reversed, t))
{'a': 1, 'b': 2}

ANSWER 3

Score 54

Even more concise if you are on python 2.7:

>>> t = ((1,'a'),(2,'b'))
>>> {y:x for x,y in t}
{'a':1, 'b':2}

ANSWER 4

Score 17

>>> dict([('hi','goodbye')])
{'hi': 'goodbye'}

Or:

>>> [ dict([i]) for i in (('CSCO', 21.14), ('CSCO', 21.14), ('CSCO', 21.14), ('CSCO', 21.14)) ]
[{'CSCO': 21.14}, {'CSCO': 21.14}, {'CSCO': 21.14}, {'CSCO': 21.14}]
