Dictionaries Practice: Python Basics Exercises

This is a preview of Python Basics Exercises: Dictionaries. In plain English, a dictionary is a book containing the definitions of words. Each entry in a dictionary has two parts: the word being defined, and its definition.

Python dictionaries, like lists and tuples, store a collection of objects. However, instead of storing objects in a sequence, dictionaries hold information in pairs of data called key-value pairs. That is, each object in a dictionary has two parts: a key and a value. Each key is assigned a single value, which defines the relationship between the two sets.

In this preview you’ll work through several exercises to practice working with Python dictionaries.

This is a portion of the complete course, which you can find here:

The rest of the course covers:
- Working with enumerate()
- Deleting a dictionary key
