Dictionary

It is an unordered collection of items where


each item consist of a key and a value.
It is mutable (can modify its contents ) but
Key must be unique and immutable.
Dictionary
Creating A Dictionary
It is enclosed in curly braces {} and each item is separated from other
item by a comma(,). Within each item, key and value are separated by a
colon (:).Passing value in dictionary at declaration is dictionary
initialization.
e.g.
dict = {‘Subject': ‘Informatic Practices', 'Class': ‘11'}

Accessing List Item


dict = {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices', 'Class': 11}
print(dict)
print ("Subject : ", dict['Subject'])
print ("Class : ", dict.get('Class'))
OUTPUT
{'Class': '11', 'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'}
('Subject : ', 'Informatics Practices')
('Class : ', 11)
Dictionary
Iterating / Traversing through A Dictionary
Following example will show how dictionary items can be accessed
through loop.
e.g.
dict = {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices', 'Class': 11}
for i in dict:
print(dict[i])
OUTPUT
11
Informatics Practices
Updating/Manipulating Dictionary Elements
We can change the individual element of dictionary.
e.g.
dict = {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices', 'Class': 11}
dict['Subject']='computer science'
print(dict)
OUTPUT
{'Class': 11, 'Subject': 'computer science'}
Dictionary
Deleting Dictionary Elements
del, pop() and clear() statement are used to
remove elements from the dictionary.
del e.g.
dict = {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices', 'Class': 11}
print('before del', dict)
del dict['Class'] # delete single element
print('after item delete', dict)
del dict #delete whole dictionary
print('after dictionary delete', dict)

Output
('before del', {'Class': 11, 'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
('after item delete', {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
('after dictionary delete', <type 'dict'>)
Dictionary
pop() method is used to remove a particular item
in a dictionary. clear() method is used to remove
all elements from the dictionary.
e.g.
dict = {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices', 'Class': 11}
print('before del', dict)
dict.pop('Class')
print('after item delete', dict)
dict.clear()
print('after clear', dict)

Output
('before del', {'Class': 11, 'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
('after item delete', {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
('after clear', {})
