Introduction to

Dictionary
Methods in
Python
Python dictionaries are powerful data structures that store
key-value pairs. Dictionary methods are functions that
operate on dictionaries, allowing you to manipulate and
access their contents.

item() method
1 Returns Key-Value Pair
The `item()` method returns a view object containing key-value pairs of the
dictionary.

2 Iterates Over Pairs


You can iterate over this view object to access each key-value pair in the dictionary.

3 Dynamic Update
The view object reflects any changes made to the dictionary.

4 Example
```python
my_dict = {'name': 'John', 'age': 30}
for key, value in my_dict.items():
print(f'Key: {key}, Value: {value}')
```

access to the keys of a
dictionary.
pop() method
Removes Key-Value Pair
The `pop()` method removes a key-value pair
from the dictionary based on the provided key.

Returns Removed Value


The `pop()` method returns the value
associated with the removed key.

Key Not Found


If the key is not found in the dictionary, the
`pop()` method raises a `KeyError` exception.
