csv - python read file (or string) into dictionary by first separator only

Question

I need to read a file into a dictionary but it contains more than one separator:

AGE 32
JOB clerk
NAME Bob Young

should become

d = {
"AGE": "32",
"JOB": "clerk",
"NAME": "Bob Young"
}

d = pd.read_csv("file.txt", delimiter=" ", header = None).to_dict()[0] fails since NAME has a second whitespace. How can I suppress the second delimiter?

Answer 1

you can read file by using native python

dicti={}
f = open("file.txt", "r").read().splitlines()
for x in f:
    dicti[x.split(' ')[0]]=x.split(' ',maxsplit=1)[1]
 
print(dicti)

and output will be:

{'AGE': '32', 'JOB': 'clerk', 'NAME': 'Bob Young'}
