Chapter 12: Dictionaries

Lecture: 2
Nesting Dictionaries:
We can add dictionaries as Values inside a dictionary. Storing a dictionary inside another
dictionary is called nesting of dictionaries.

PRG 4:
Program demonstrates the use of nested dictionary.
print('='*52)
Emp ={'Ram Prakash' : {'age': 25, 'salary':30000},
'Divya': {'age': 23, 'salary':20000}}
for KEY in Emp:
print('Employee', KEY, ':')
print('Age:', str(Emp[KEY]['age']))
print('Salary:', str(Emp[KEY]['salary']))
print('='*52)

Output:

====================================================
Employee Ram Prakash :
Age: 25
Salary: 30000
Employee Divya :
Age: 23
Salary: 20000
====================================================

PRG 5:
Program to demonstrates the use of items() method.
print('='*52)
Emp= {'salary' :20000, 'dept' : 'Sales', 'age' : 23, 'name' : 'John'}
Emplist = Emp.items()
print (type (Emp), type (Emplist))
for a in Emplist:
print(a)

print ('-'*52)
seq = Emp.items()
print(type(seq))
for key, val in Emplist:
print (key, val)
print ('='*52)

Output:
====================================================
<class 'dict'> <class 'dict_items'>
('salary', 20000)
('dept', 'Sales')
('age', 23)
('name', 'John')
----------------------------------------------------
<class 'dict_items'>
salary 20000
dept Sales
age 23
name John
====================================================
PRG 6:
The dictionary Stud stores the rollnos:names of the students who have been
selected to participate in national event. Write a program to display:
➢ The roll numbers selected.
➢ The students’ names selected
print('='*52)
Stud ={}
N = int(input('How many students?'))
for a in range(N):
r, nm =eval(input('Enter nollno, name:'))
Stud[r]=nm
print("Created dictionary")
print(Stud)
print('-'*52)
print ("1. Selected roll numbers are:")
print(Stud.keys())
print('-'*52)
print ("2. Selected students' names are:")
print(Stud.values())
print('='*52)

Output:
====================================================
How many students?3
Enter nollno, name:12, 'MANISH'
Enter nollno, name:15, 'SUMIT'
Enter nollno, name:14, 'RAMAN'
Created dictionary
{12: 'MANISH', 15: 'SUMIT', 14: 'RAMAN'}
----------------------------------------------------
1. Selected roll numbers are:
dict_keys([12, 15, 14])
----------------------------------------------------
2. Selected students' names are:
dict_values(['MANISH', 'SUMIT', 'RAMAN'])
====================================================

PRG 7:
Your school has declared to deposit scholarship amount of Rs. 2500/- to some
selected students.
Write a program to input the selected students’ roll number and create a
dictionary for the same.

print('='*52)
List = []
N = int(input('How many students?'))
print('-'*52)
for a in range(N):
r =int(input('Enter nollno:'))
List.append(r)
Stud = dict.fromkeys(List, 2500)
print('-'*52)
print("Created dictionary")
print(Stud)
print('='*52)

Output:

====================================================
How many students?4
----------------------------------------------------
Enter nollno:12
Enter nollno:26
Enter nollno:14
Enter nollno:20
----------------------------------------------------
Created dictionary
{12: 2500, 26: 2500, 14: 2500, 20: 2500}
====================================================

PRG 8:
Write a menu driven program to create a dictionary Stud which stores marks of
students of a class with roll numbers as the keys and marks as the values.
Perform the following functionalities on the created dictionary Stud:
1. Add new element to the dictionary Stud
2. Delete element from the dictionary Stud
3. Display dictionary elements
4. Exit.

 print('='*52)
Stud ={}
n= int(input("How many studnets?"))
for a in range(n):
r, m = eval(input("Enter Roll No., Marks:"))
Stud [r] = m

print('-'*92)
print(' Created dictionary')
print(Stud)
print('-'*92)
while True:
print("1. Add new element to the dictionary Stud")
print("2. Delete element from the dictionary Stud")
print("3. Display dictionary elements")
print("4. Exit.")
ch=int(input("Enter your choice:\t"))
print('-'*92)
if ch== 1:
print('Enter details of new student')
r , m = eval(input("Enter Roll No., Marks:"))
Stud[r] = m
print('-'*92)

elif ch ==2:
rno = int(input("Enter roll no to be deleted:\t"))
if rno in Stud:
del Stud[rno]
print("Roll no.", rno,"deleted from the dictionary")
else:
print("Roll no.", rno, "does not exist in the dictionary.")
print('-'*92)
elif ch ==3:
print("Roll No\tMarks")
for key in Stud:
print(key,'\t',Stud[key])
print('-'*92)
elif ch== 4:
break
else:
print("Wrong choice")

Output:
====================================================
How many studnets?3
Enter Roll No., Marks:12, 82
Enter Roll No., Marks:15, 98
Enter Roll No., Marks:18, 97
