Dictionary in Python -

Dictionaries are used to store data values in key:value pairs. A

-
dictionary is a collection which is ordered, changeable and do not
- -

allow duplicates.
-
Creating a Dictionary

Syntax is:

<dictiionary_name>={‘key1’:’value1’,’key2’:’value2’,....’keyn’:’valuen’}
-

Eg: ---
d={‘Rollno’:’2’,’name’:’Anu’,’age’:’17’}
-
- -

Accessing Elements in a Dictionary

Syntax is: -
Tup = (25 30 95)
, ,

dictionary_name[key]
-
↑ upO] = 25

Eg: TYPID = 30

dict1={‘Name’:’Riya’,’Age’:’7’,’class’:’second’}
=

print(dict1[‘Name’]) dist;
for i in

Ct1EName] = Rigs
di Pant (i dizid
,

dict1['Age) : T Name Righ

dict1[class] = Second Age 7
Traversing a dictionary -

in operator using for loop :

-

=
Eg: d={1:’one’,2:’two’,3:’three’,4:’four’} ⑪
-for i in d:
print(i,’:’,d[i])
Eg:
1: one -
2: two -
3: three
4: four
 Appending values to a dictionary -
-
..

"

Syntax:
Dictionary_name[key]=value E

- 93
Eg: -
- -
d1={‘mon’:’monday’,’tue’:’tuesday’,’wed’:’wednesday’}
- -
-

d1[‘thu’]=’thursday’ L
--

print(d1)
{‘mon’:‘monday’,’tue’:’tuesday’,’wed’:’wednesday’,’thu’:’thursday’}

Updating Elements in a Dictionary -

Syntax:
-

<Dictionary>[key]=<value>
-

-
Eg: D={‘Teena’:18,’Riya’:12,’Alya’:22,’Ravi’:25}
-
-

D[‘Riya’]=28 u
-

print(D)
-

yeanc : 18
,
Riya : 28 Alta : 22
,
S
Ravi : 25

 Common Dictionary Functions And Methods

-len() : This method returns number of key-value pairs in the

-
given dictionary .
-

Syntax :
len(dictionary_name)
-
-

- -- &

Eg: d1={1:10,2:30,3:30,5:40,6:60}
-----

len(d1) -
>>>E 5
get() method -

The get method returns a value for the given key . if key is not
-
available , then returns default value None .
-

Syntax: ~
dict.get(key,default=None)
'Bull', 3 : Cil]
El : 'An ; 2 :
T =

- - - -

,’thu’:’Thursday’}
-

D1.get(‘wed’)
-

>>>wednesday -

D1.get(‘fri’) -

6
>>>None

E
 Items() -

It returns content of a dictionary as a list of tuples having key-value

-

pairs .
-

Syntax :
D.items()
Eg:
D={‘sun’:’sunday’,’mon’:’monday’,’tue’:’tuesday’,’wed’:’wednesday’,
c -

’thu’:’Thursday’}
D.items() (the 'nesday
C'mon Monday)
-

Sunday B , ,
, ,
D G2(sun , ,
Wednesday's33
=

Cwed' ,
keys() -

It returns a list of keys from key-value pairs in a dictionary .

Syntax:
D.keys()

D={‘sun’:’sunday’,’mon’:’monday’,’tue’:’tuesday’,’wed’:’wednesday’,
’thu’:’thursday’}
D.keys()

D = 2 sun, mon
,
te
,
wed
,
thu
?
values() -

It returns a list of values from key-value pairs in a dictionary .

-

Syntax :

D.values()
D={‘sun’:’Sunday’,’mon’:’Monday’,’tue’:’tuesday’,’wed’:’wednesday’,
-
- -

‘thu’:’thursday’}
-

D.values()
 -
copy()

We cannot copy a dictionary by using assignment ('=') operator as it

-
will create a reference to the same dictionary variable and
modifications will also be reflected in both dictionaries. We can use
built-in function copy() to create a new dictionary and modifications
done on base dictionary will not be reflected.
