A collection which is unordered, changeable and indexed is known as a dictionary in python. It takes two elements where one is the key and the other one is value. However, the keys should be unique within a dictionary while values may not be. The data type of the values can be anything but the keys must be of an immutable data type such as strings, numbers, or tuples.
To separate a key from its value a colon (:) is used whereas the items are separated by commas. The whole thing is enclosed in curly braces.
The dictionary items can be accessed by referring to its key name.
This can be done by using a new index and assigning a value to it.
There are many methods that are used for removing items.
You can use a for loop through a dictionary.
This loop returns the values of the keys.
This loop returns all the values one by one.
