Python edit Master title style

• The dictionary is an unordered collection that contains key:value


pairs separated by commas inside curly brackets
• Dictionaries are optimized to retrieve values when the key is
known.
• Dictionary object contains key-value pairs inside { } separated by
a colon symbol :
• The left side of : is a key, and the right side is a value

• The key should be unique and an immutable object


• A number, string or tuple can be used as key
• However, a dictionary with a list as a key is not valid, as the list is
mutable but a list can be used as a value
• The same key cannot appear more than once in a collection
• If the key appears more than once, only the last will be retained
• The value can be of any data type
• One value can be assigned to more than one key

• The dict is the class of all dictionaries


• A dictionary can also be created using the dict() constructor
method

Accessing Master title style
Dictionary

• Dictionary is an unordered collection, so a value cannot be


accessed using an index; instead, a key must be specified in the
square brackets
• Keys are case-sensitive
• If the specified key does not exist then it will raise an error
• Use the get() method to retrieve the key's value even if keys are
not known
• It returns None if the key does not exist instead of raising an error
• Use the for loop to iterate a dictionary in the Python script

Retrieve, and Check

• The key cannot appear more than once


• Use the same key and assign a new value to it to update the dictionary
object
• Use a new key and assign a value to it
• The dictionary will show an additional key-value pair in it
• Use the del keyword, pop(), or popitem() methods to delete a pair
from a dictionary or the dictionary object itself
• To delete a pair, use its key as a parameter
• To delete a dictionary object, use its name

Retrieve, and Check

• The keys() and values() methods return a view objects containing


keys and values respectively
• You can check whether a particular key exists in a dictionary
collection or not using the in or not in keywords
• Note that it only checks for keys not values

Master title style

• In Python, the for keyword provides a more comprehensive


mechanism to constitute a loop
• The for loop is used with sequence types such as list, tuple, set,
range, etc.

• The body of the for loop is executed for each member element in
the sequence
• Hence, it doesn't require explicit verification of a boolean expression
controlling the loop (as in the while loop)

the range() Function

• The range class is an immutable sequence type


• The range() returns the range object that can be used with the for
loop

Loop Master
Exit, title Else
Continue, styleBlock, and Nested

• The execution of the for loop can be stop and exit using the break
keyword on some condition
• Use the continue keyword to skip the current execution and
continue on the next iteration using the continue keyword on some
condition
• The else block can follow the for loop, which will be executed when
the for loop ends
• If a loop (for loop or while loop) contains another loop in its body
block, we say that the two loops are nested
• If the outer loop is designed to perform m iterations and the inner loop is
designed to perform n repetitions, the body block of the inner loop will get
executed m X n times
