Swe-102 Lab 10!

The document discusses tuples and dictionaries in Python. Tuples are immutable sequences that are defined using parentheses. Dictionaries are mutable mappings that store key-value pairs. The document provides examples of creating, accessing, and modifying tuples and dictionaries. It also lists some common tuple and dictionary methods. Exercises at the end involve working with tuples and dictionaries through problems like printing menu items, guessing capitals game, and storing favorite places.

TUPLE AND DICTIONARY

OBJECTIVE
Getting familiar with other data storing techniques - Tuple and Dictionary.

THEORY

Tuple:
A tuple is a sequence of immutable Python objects. Tuples are like lists, but their
elements are fixed, that once a tuple is created, you cannot add new elements, delete
elements, replace elements, or reorder the elements in the tuple.
Syntax for creating tuple:
tup1 =() #Empty tuple
tup2 = ('physics', 'chemistry') #Tuple of string)
tup3 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ) #Tuple of integer

#Create a tuple from a list


tup4 = tuple([2 * x for x in range(1, 5)]) # (2, 4, 6, 8)
#Create Single item in tuple
tup1 = (50,)

Example: Accessing Values in Tuples


tup1 = ('physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000)
tup2 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 )
print ("tup1[0]: ", tup1[2])
print ("tup2[1:5]: ", tup2[1:5])

Output:
>>> %Run task1.py
tup1[2]: 1997
tup2[1:5]: (2, 3, 4, 5)

Tuple Functions:
cmp(tuple1, tuple2) Compares elements of both tuples.
len(tuple) Gives the total length of the tuple.
max(tuple) Returns item from the tuple with max value.
min(tuple) Returns item from the tuple with min value.
tuple(seq) Converts a list into tuple.

Dictionary:
A dictionary is a container object that stores a collection of key/value pairs. It enables
fast retrieval, deletion, and updating of the value by using the key. A dictionary is also
known as a map, which maps each key to a value.

Syntax for creating dictionary:


dict1={} # Create an empty dictionary
dict2={1: 'apple', 2: 'ball'} # dictionary with integer keys

Example: Accessing Values in Dictionary


my_dict = {'name':'xyz', 'age': 26}
print("value:",my_dict['name'])
print("value:",my_dict.get('age'))

Output:
>>> %Run task2.py
value: xyz
value: 26

Example: Adding, Modifying, Retrieving and Deleting Values


To add,modify and retrieve an item to a dictionary, use the syntax:
dictionaryName[key] = value
To delete an item from a dictionary, use the syntax: del dictionaryName[key],
dictionaryName.pop(key)
students = {"111-31":"John", "111-32":"Peter"}
students["111-33"] = "Susan" # Add a new item
print("Add item:",students)
del students["111-31"] # Delete item
print("Delete item:",students)

Output:
>>> %Run task3.py
Add item:{'111-31':'John', '111-32':'Peter', '111-33': 'Susan'}
Delete item: {'111-32': 'Peter', '111-33': 'Susan'}

Dictionary Methods:
keys(): tuple Returns a sequence of keys in form of tuple.
values(): tuple Returns a sequence of values.
items(): tuple Returns a sequence of tuples. Each tuple is (key, value) for an item.
clear(): None Deletes all entries.
get(key): value Returns the value for the key.
popitem(): tuple Returns a randomly selected key/value pair as a tuple and removes
the selected item.

EXERCISE

A. Point out the errors, if any, and paste the output also in the following Python
programs.
1. Code
t = (1, 2, 3)
t.append(4)
t.remove(0)
del tup[0]

Output

2. Code
1user_0=['username':'efermi','first':'enrico','last':'fermi',]
for key, value in 1user_0.items():
print("\nKey: " ,key)
print("Value: " ,value)

Output:

What will be the output of the following programs:


1. Code
tuple1 = ("green", "red", "blue")
tuple2 = tuple([7, 1, 2, 23, 4, 5])
tuple3 = tuple1 + tuple2
print(tuple3)
tuple3 = 2 * tuple1
print(tuple3)
print(tuple2[2 : 4])
print(tuple1[-1])

Output

2. Code
def main():
d = {"red":4, "blue":1, "green":14, "yellow":2}
print(d["red"])
print(list(d.keys()))
print(list(d.values()))
print("blue" in d)
print("purple" in d)
d["blue"] += 10
print(d["blue"])
main() # Call the main function

Output

C. Write Python programs for the following:

1. Write a program that create a buffet-style restaurant offers only five basic foods.
Think of five simple foods, and store them in a tuple. (Hint:Use a for loop to print each
food the restaurant offers. Also the restaurant changes its menu, replacing two of the
items with different foods and display the menu again.

2. Write a program for “Guess the capitals” using a dictionary to store the pairs of
states and capitals so that the questions are randomly displayed. The program should
keep a count of the number of correct and incorrect responses.

3. Write a pogram that make a dictionary called favorite_places. Think of three names
to use as keys in the dictionary, and store three favorite places for each person through
list. Loop through the dictionary, and print each person’s name and their favorite
places.
Output look alike:
abc likes the following places:
- Bear Mountain
- Death Valley
- Tierra Del Fuego
