"john" in d
a) True
b) False
c) None
d) Error
d1 = {"john":40, "peter":45}
d2 = {"john":466, "peter":45}
d1 == d2
a) True

d = {"john":40, "peter":45}
d["john"]
a) 40
b) 45
c) “john”
d) “peter”
4. Suppose d = {“john”:40, “peter”:45}, to delete the entry for “john” what command do we use?
a) d.delete(“john”:40)
b) d.delete(“john”)
c) del d[“john”]
d) del d(“john”:40)
d = {"john":40, "peter":45}
print(list(d.keys()))
a) [“john”, “peter”]
b) [“john”:40, “peter”:45]
c) (“john”, “peter”)
d) (“john”:40, “peter”:45)
6. Suppose d = {“john”:40, “peter”:45}, what happens when we try to retrieve a value using the
expression d[“susan”]?
a) Since “susan” is not a value in the set, Python raises a KeyError exception
b) It is executed fine and no exception is raised, and it returns None
c) Since “susan” is not a key in the set, Python raises a KeyError exception
d) Since “susan” is not a key in the set, Python raises a syntax error
7. Which of these about a dictionary is false?
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}

print(i,j,end=" ")
a) 1 A 2 B 3 C
b) 1 2 3
c) A B C
d) 1:”A” 2:”B” 3:”C”
10. What will be the output of the following Python code snippet?
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
print(a.get(1,4))
a) 1
b) A
c) 4
d) Invalid syntax for get method
11. What will be the output of the following Python code snippet?
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
print(a.get(5,4))
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
b={4:"D",5:"E"}
a.update(b)
print(a)
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
b=a.copy()
b[2]="D"
print(a)
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
a.clear()
print(a)
a) None
b) { None:None, None:None, None:None}
c) {1:None, 2:None, 3:None}
d) { }
15. What will be the output of the following Python code?
a={1:5,2:3,3:4}
a.pop(3)
print(a)
a) {1: 5}
b) {1: 5, 2: 3}
c) Error, syntax error for pop() method
d) {1: 5, 3: 4}
a={1:5,2:3,3:4}
a.pop(3)
print(a)
a) {1: 5}
b) {1: 5, 2: 3}
c) Error, syntax error for pop() method
d) {1: 5, 3: 4}
a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
for i in a:
print(i,end=" ")
a) 1 2 3
b) ‘A’ ‘B’ ‘C’
c) 1 ‘A’ 2 ‘B’ 3 ‘C’
d) Error, it should be: for i in a.items():
>>> a={1:"A",2:"B",3:"C"}
>>> a.items()
a) Syntax error
b) dict_items([(‘A’), (‘B’), (‘C’)])
c) dict_items([(1,2,3)])
d) dict_items([(1, ‘A’), (2, ‘B’), (3, ‘C’)])
