Below is the Python program to read a dictionary from a file, invert the dictionary, and write
the inverted dictionary to another file. I will also provide a technical explanation for the code
and its output.

Explanation:
read_dict_from_file: This function reads the dictionary from a file using the ast.literal_eval
function, which safely evaluates a string containing a Python literal or container display.
invert_dict: This function takes the original dictionary as input and creates an inverted
dictionary where keys are unique values from the original dictionary, and values are lists of
keys from the original dictionary that had the corresponding value.
write_dict_to_file: This function writes the inverted dictionary to a file. main: This is the
main function where you specify the input and output file paths, read the original dictionary,
invert it, and write the inverted dictionary to a file.

The sample input and output files are read and written using these functions, respectively.
The output file will contain the inverted dictionary with values as keys and lists of
corresponding keys as values.
The output from the code would be the creation of a file named output_dict.txt containing the
inverted dictionary. The content of this file would be a representation of the inverted
dictionary, where keys are unique values from the original dictionary, and values are lists of
corresponding keys from the original dictionary. However, the exact content of the
output_dict.txt file will depend on the content of my input dictionary file (input_dict.txt).
