Python Dictionary Problem-Solving Questions

Basic to Medium Level Questions


1. Frequency Counter
Given a string, count the frequency of each character using a
dictionary.
Example: s = "mississippi" # Expected Output: {'m': 1, 'i': 4,
's': 4, 'p': 2}

2. Swap Keys and Values


Write a program to create a new dictionary in which keys and values of
the dictionary are swapped. Assume that all the values in given
dictionary are unique.
Example: d = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3} # Expected Output: {1: 'a',
2: 'b', 3: 'c'}

3. Find Key with Maximum Value. Also find sum of all values
Find the key in a dictionary with the highest value.
Example: d = {'a': 10, 'b': 50, 'c': 30} # Expected Output: 50,
90

4. Count Words in a Sentence


Write a function to count occurrences of each word in a sentence.
Example: sentence = "this is a test this is only a test" #
Expected Output: {'this': 2, 'is': 2, 'a': 2, 'test': 2, 'only': 1}

5. Nested Dictionary Access


Given a nested dictionary, print the value of the age field.
Example: person = {'name': 'Alice', 'details': {'age': 25,
'city': 'NY'}} #Expected output: 25

6. Dictionary from Two Lists


Convert two lists into a dictionary using inbuilt zip function.
Example: keys = ['a', 'b', 'c'], values = [1, 2, 3] # Output:
{'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}

Also, what will be output of the code if the given inputs are keys = [‘s’,
‘i’, ‘v’, ‘a’, ‘y’, ‘y’, ‘a’], values = [‘B’, ‘A’, ‘L’, ‘L’, ‘A’, ‘Y’, ‘A’]

7. Check whether the given input exists as a key in a dictionary without


using the in keyword. If the key exists then print True else False.

8. Filter Dictionary by Condition: Given a list of dictionaries where


each dictionary represents product details (with keys like name, price,
and id), filter and return the products where the name starts with 'a' or
the price is less than 100 and the id is greater than 22.
Example:

1.

2. #Expected output: apple almond berry
