Assignment 2 (part two)¶

Dictionary Accumulation

The dictionary Junior shows a schedule for a junior year semester. The key is the course name
and the value is the number of credits. Find the total number of credits taken this semester and
assign it to the variable credits . Do not hardcode this – use dictionary accumulation!
