Question 1:
Write programs to sort the dictionary {'ravi': '10', 'rajnish': '9', 'sanjeev': '15',
'yash': '2', 'suraj': '32'} and print

ANSWER:
dict = {'ravi': '10', 'rajnish': '9', 'sanjeev': '15', 'yash':
'2', 'suraj': '32'}

# sorting and printing with keys - names

for i in sorted(dict):
print((i, dict[i]), sep="\n ")

# sorting and printing with values - numbers

dict1=sorted(dict.values())
print(dict1)

# sorting and printing with keys pair - both

dict2 = sorted(dict.items())
print(dict2)

OUTPUT:

('rajnish', '9')
('ravi', '10')
('sanjeev', '15')
('suraj', '32')
('yash', '2')

['10', '15', '2', '32', '9']

[('rajnish', '9'), ('ravi', '10'), ('sanjeev', '15'), ('suraj', '32'), ('yash', '2')]

Question 2:

Write a Python program to find the highest 2 values in a dictionary.

ANSWER:

#Defining a dictionary
dic =
{"A":12,"B":13,"C":9,"D":89,"E":34,"F":17,"G":65,"H":36,"I":25,"J
":11}

#Creating an empty list to store all the values of the dictionary

lst = list()

#Looping through each values and storing it in list

for a in dic.values():
lst.append(a)

#Sorting the list in ascending order, it will store the highest

value at the last index
lst.sort()

#Printing the highest and second highest value using negative

indexing of the list
print("Highest value:",lst[-1])
print("Second highest value:",lst[-2])

OUTPUT:
Highest value: 89
Second highest value: 65

Question 3

Write a Python program to create a dictionary from a string.

Note: Track the count of the letters from the string.

Sample string : 'w3resource'

Expected output : {'3': 1, 's': 1, 'r': 2, 'u': 1, 'w': 1, 'c': 1, 'e': 2, 'o': 1}
ANSWER:

#creates an empty dictionary

for ch in st:
if ch in dic:
#if next character is already in the dictionary

Question 11
Given the dictionary x = {'k1':'v1', 'k2':'v2', 'k3':'v3'}, create a dictionary with the opposite
mapping, i.e., write a program to create the dictionary as :
inverted_x = {'v1': 'k1' , 'v2' :'k2' , 'v3':'k3'}

ANSWER

x = { "k1" : "v1" , "k2" : "v2", "k3" : "v3"}

Question 12

Given two dictionaries say D1 and D2. Write a program that lists the overlapping keys of
the two dictionaries, i.e., if a key of D1 is also a key of D2, then list it.

ANSWER

d1 = eval(input("Enter first dictionary: "))

d2 = eval(input("Enter second dictionary: "))

print("First dictionary: ", d1)

print("Second dictionary: ", d2)

if len(d1) > len(d2):

longDict = d1
shortDict = d2
else:
longDict = d2
shortDict = d1

print("overlapping keys in the two dictionaries are:", end=' ')

for i in shortDict:
if i in longDict:
print(i, end=' ')

Output

Enter first dictionary: {'a': 1, 'b':2, 'c': 3, 'd': 4}

Enter second dictionary: {'c': 3, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}

Second dictionary: {'c': 3, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}
overlapping keys in the two dictionaries are: c d

Question 13

Write a program that checks if two same values in a dictionary have different keys.
That is, for dictionary D1 = { 'a' : 10, 'b': 20, 'c' : 10}, the program should print 2 keys
have same values and for dictionary D2 = {'a' : 10, 'b' : 20, 'c' : 30} , the program
should print No keys have same values.

ANSWER

D1 = eval(input("Enter a dictionary D1: "))

print("D1 =", D1)

val = tuple(D1.values())
seen = []
flag = True

for i in val:
if i not in seen:
seen.append(i)
count = val.count(i)
if count > 1:
print(count, "keys have same value of", i)
flag = False

if flag:
print("No keys have same values")

Output

Enter a dictionary D1: {'a': 10, 'b': 20, 'c': 10, 'd': 40, 'e':
10, 'f': 20}
D1 = {'a': 10, 'b': 20, 'c': 10, 'd': 40, 'e': 10, 'f': 20}
3 keys have same value of 10
2 keys have same value of 20

Question 14

Write a program to check if a dictionary is contained in another dictionary e.g., if

d1 = {1:11, 2:12}
d2 = {1:11, 2:12, 3:13, 4:15}

then d1 is contained in d2.

 SBOA SCHOOL AND JUNIOR COLLEGE, CHENNAI – 101

Std: XI Computer Science – Dictionary in python

ANSWER

d1 = eval(input("Enter a dictionary d1: "))

d2 = eval(input("Enter a dictionary d2: "))

print("d1 =", d1)

print("d2 =", d2)

if len(d1) > len(d2):

longDict = d1
shortDict = d2
else:
longDict = d2
shortDict = d1

for key in shortDict:

if key in longDict:
if longDict[key] != shortDict[key]:
print("d1 and d2 are different ")
break
else:
print("d1 and d2 are different ")
break
else:
print(shortDict, "is contained in", longDict)

Output
Enter a dictionary d1: {1:11, 2:12}
Enter a dictionary d2: {1:11, 2:12, 3:13, 4:15}
d1 = {1: 11, 2: 12}
d2 = {1: 11, 2: 12, 3: 13, 4: 15}
{1: 11, 2: 12} is contained in {1: 11, 2: 12, 3: 13, 4: 15}

Question 15
A dictionary D1 has values in the form of lists of numbers. Write a program to
create a new dictionary D2 having same keys as D1 but values as the sum of the
list elements e.g.,
D1 = {'A' : [1, 2, 3] , 'B' : [4, 5, 6]}
then
D2 is {'A' :6, 'B' : 15}

ANSWER

D1 = eval(input("Enter a dictionary D1: "))

print("D1 =", D1)

D2 = {}
for key in D1:
