SoLVED EXERCISES
1. What is a dictionary?
Ans. A Python dictionary is a group of key-value pairs. The elements in a dictionary are indexed by keys.
Keys in a dictionary are required to be unique.
2. How can you access data from a dictionary?
Ars. The simplest way to retrieve a value from a dictionary is by directly accessing it with a key. To get a
key's value, just put the key in brackets, following the name of the dictionary.
3. What does the item() method of dictionary return?
Ans. The items() method returns a list of dictionaries (key: value) pairs as tuples.
4. What is the main of
use a dictionary?
Ans. The main use of a dictionary is to look up the value associated with a particular key.

.WhyPython dictionaries are called mappings?

Ans
AnS.
Python dictionaries are called mappings because these are like a collection that allows us to look up
intormation associated with arbitrary keys.
.

keyword parameters resultin
corresponding pairs in the dictionary being updated.
7. Define tuple. the
Ans. A tuple is an immutable list. A tuple cannot be
changed in any way once it is
created. Tuples s

are immutable, we cannot replace ce coded
8. Differentiate between list and tuples.
Ans. The differences are:
List are mutable while
tuples are not.
Tuples can be hashed e.g., to be used as
Tuples used when the order of the keys
