5. Dictionary
Definition: A kind of list type data storing technique in which each
element is accessible through unique key.
A key can be any number, String or tuple.
Values into dictionary are mutable, mean can be changed but key in
dictionary are immutable, it mean once key declared can’t be change.
Syntax:
Dict_Var={key1:value, key2:value,…}
Ex: d1={1:”Value1”, “2”:”Value2”}

 5. Dictionary: Creating, Inserting and modifying value
Let create a program to create a dictionary which hold items and price
Creating a
>>> d1={"Keyboard":350, "Mouse":150}
new dict.

Hands
on IDLE

Adding data to
>>> d1[“Monitor”]=4500
existing Dict

Hands
on IDLE
>>>Key=input(“Enter Product Name”) Adding New data
>>>val=int(input(“Enter product price”) to existing by
>>>d1[key]=val taking user input

Hands on IDLE:
TRY AND CHECK

 5. Dictionary: Built-in Functions and Methods
Sr. Method Description D1=[1:”Apple”,2:”Banana”,3:”Mango”]
1 clear() Remove all elements from dictionary >>>D1.clear()
2 copy() A shallow copy of dictionary is created >>>D2=D1.copy()
Note: it s different from D2=D1
3 item() Returns a list of dictionary’s >>>D1.item()
(key,value) tuple pairs
4 keys() Returns the list of dictionary’s key >>>D1.keys()
5 setdefault(key,Value) Return key’s value when key exist into >>>D1.setdefault(1)
dictionary otherwise add key along >>>D1.setdefault(4)
with value into dict. If no value >>>print(D1)
specified default value is “None” >>>D1.setdefault(5,”Orange”)
>>>print(D1)
6 update() Marge another dictionary >>>D2={“a”:”Keyboard”, ”b”:”Mouse”}
>>>D1.update(D2)
7 values() Returns the list of dicti’s value >>>D1.values()
