ge
They are unordered, mutable(changeable) & don’t allow duplicate keys

le
Col
na
“key” : value

Ap
dict[”name”], dict[”cgpa”], dict[”marks”]

dict[”key”] = “value” #to assign or add new

Dictionary Methods
myDict.keys( ) #returns all keys

lege
ol
myDict.values( ) #returns all values

na C
p
myDict.items( ) #returns all (key, val) pairs as tuples

A
myDict.get( “key““ ) #returns the key according to value

myDict.update( newDict ) #inserts the specified items to the dictionary


Set in Python
Set is the collection of the unordered items.

ge
Each element in the set must be unique & immutable.

olle
nums = { 1, 2, 3, 4 }

na C
set2 = { 1, 2, 2, 2 }

Ap
#repeated elements stored only once, so it resolved to {1, 2}

null_set = set( ) #empty set syntax


Set Methods
set.add( el ) #adds an element

lege
ol
set.remove( el ) #removes the elem an

na C
p
set.clear( ) #empties the set

A
set.pop( ) #removes a random value
Set Methods
set.union( set2 ) #combines both set values & returns new

lege
set.intersection( set2 ) #combines common values & returns new

You are given a list of subjects for students. Assume one classroom is required for 1

an empty dictionary & add one by one. Use subject name as key & marks as value.

Figure out a way to store 9 & 9.0 as separate values in the set.
(You can take help of built-in data types)
