I'm new to Python and I'm currently working by solving questions to improve my coding skills. I have two Lists with equal sizes and I want to add those values from the lists into a dictionary as key-value pairs. How can I do that? From my research, I found that I could use the dict to add the elements from the list to a dictionary as only keys or values.

Example: 

List_1 = [1, 2, 3, 4]
List_2 = [11, 12, 13, 14]

My dictionary should contain:

<'1':'11', '2':'12', '3':'13', '4':'14'>

My code: d = dict.fromkeys(List_1, 0) - but this only adds the elements in List_1 as keys and 0's as values. But if i replace the 0 with List_2, the output is quite weird and not as expected.

Please help me in understanding this. Thanks in advance. Your help is much appreciated.

wouldn't dict(zip(List_1, List_2)) work? In this case, you'll get a dictionary of int rather than a dictionary of strings. . .
