CHAPTER-13

Dictionary
It is an unordered collection of items where each
item consist of a key and a value.
It is mutable (can modify its contents ) but Key must be
unique and immutable.
COMPUTERSCIENCE (CLASS XI)

Creating A Dictionary
• It is enclosed in curly braces {} and each item is separated
from other item by a comma(,)
• Within each item, key and value are separated by a colon (:)
• Passing value in dictionary at declaration is dictionary
initialization.
• get() method is used to access value of a key
E.g.
dict = {‘Subject': ‘Informatic Practices', 'Class': ‘11'}
Accessing List Item
dict = {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices', 'Class': 11}
print(dict)
print ("Subject : ", dict['Subject'])
dict.get('Class')
OUTPUT
{'Class': '11', 'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'}
('Subject : ', 'Informatics Practices')
11

Iterating / Traversing through A Dictionary
Following example will show how dictionary items can be accessed
through loop.
e.g.
for i in dict:
print(dict[i])
OUTPUT
Informatics Practices

Updating/Manipulating Dictionary Elements
We can change the individual element of
dictionary.
e.g.
dict['Subject']='computer science'
print(dict)

Questions
1. Create dictionary to store 4 student details
with rollno, name, age.
2. Create dictionary for month and no of days
for a year. User is asked to enter month
name and system will show no of days of
that month.

Deleting Dictionary Elements
del, pop() and clear() statement are used to remove
elements from the dictionary.
e.g. DEL
print('before del', dict)
del dict['Class'] # delete single element
print('after item delete', dict)
del dict #delete whole dictionary
print('after dictionary delete', type(dict))
Output
(before del {'Class': 11, 'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
(after item delete {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
('after dictionary delete' <type 'dict'>)
Dictionary

pop() method is used to remove a particular item in a
dictionary.
clear() method is used to remove all elements from the dictionary.
e.g.
print('before del', dict)
dict.pop('Class')
print('after item delete', dict)
dict.clear()
print('after clear', dict)
Output
('before del' {'Class': 11, 'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
(after item delete {'Subject': 'Informatics Practices'})
('after clear' {})

Built-in Dictionary Functions
S.No. Function & Description
1 len(dict)----Gives the total length of the dictionary. It is equal to the
number of items in the dictionary.
dict = {'Name': 'Aman', 'Age': 37}
print (len (dict))
OUTPUT ->2
2 str(dict)-----Return a printable stringrepresentationof a Dictionary.
>>> "{'Name': 'Aman', 'Age': 37}"
3 type(variable)If variable is dictionary, then it would return a
dictionary type.
>>>type(dict)
Dictionary

Built-in Dictionary Methods
S.No. Method & Description
1 dict() - creates dictionary # Argument method
x = dict(name = “Aman", age = 37, country = “India")
Here x is created as dictionary
2
keys() - returns all the available keys
print(x.keys())
OUTPUT->dict_keys(['country', 'age', 'name'])
3
values() - returns all the available values
print(x.values())
OUTPUT->dict_values(['India', 37, 'Aman'])
Dictionary

4
items() - return the list with all dictionary keys with values.
x = dict(name = "Aman", age = 37, country = "India")
print(x.items())
OUTPUT->dict_items([('country', 'India'), ('age', 37), ('name',
'Aman')])
5
update()-used to change the values of a key and add new keys
x = dict(name = "Aman", age = 37, country =
India") d1 = dict(age= 39)
x.update(d1,state="Rajasthan
")
print(x)
OUTPUT-{'country': 'India', 'age': 39,'name':'Aman','state':
'Rajasthan'}
Dictionary

6
del -used to remove key
del x['age']
print(x)
OUTPUT->{'country': 'India', 'name': 'Aman'}
del x -> will remove complete dictionary
7
fromkeys() – is used to create dictionary from keys
keys = {'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u' }
value ="Vowel"
vowels = dict.fromkeys(keys, value)
print(vowels)
OUTPUT-> {'i': 'Vowel', 'u': 'Vowel', 'e': 'Vowel', 'a': 'Vowel', 'o': 'Vowel'}
Dictionary

8 copy() - returns a shallow copy of the dictionary.
y=x.copy()
print(y)
print(id(x))
print(id(y))
OUTPUT - >{'country': 'India', 'age': 37, 'name': 'Aman'}
33047872
33047440
9 popitem() – removes last item from dictionary
x.popitem()
print(x)
OUTPUT-> {'age': 37, 'name': 'Aman'}
Dictionary

10 setdefault() method returns the value of the item with the specified
key. If the key does not exist, insert the key, with the specified value.
x = dict(name = "Aman", country = "India")
y=x.setdefault('age',39)
print(y)
OUTPUT->
39
11 max() – returns key having maximum value
Tv = {'a':100, 'b':1292, 'c' : 88}
Keymax = max(Tv, key=Tv.get)
print(Keymax)
OUTPUT-> b
12 min()- returns key having minimum value
Dict = {'Name': 'Aman', 'Age': 37}
print (min(Dict)
>>> Output - ?
Dictionary
Dictionary

13 max( )- returns key having maximum value
Dict = {'Name': 'Aman', 'Age': 37}
print (max(Dict)
>>> Output - ?
14. sorted- sort by key or value
dict1 = {'b':100, 'a':12, 'c' : 88}
y = sorted(dict1.items(),key=lambda x:
x[1],reverse=True) print(y)
OUTPUT-> [('b', 100), ('c', 88), ('a',12)]
Dictionary
