Python Dictionary Methods with Examples

1. [Link]()

Removes all elements from the dictionary.

Example:

d = {'a': 1, 'b': 2}

[Link]()

print(d) # Output: {}

2. [Link]()

Returns a shallow copy of the dictionary.

Example:

d1 = {'x': 10, 'y': 20}

d2 = [Link]()

print(d2) # Output: {'x': 10, 'y': 20}

3. [Link](seq, value)

Creates a dictionary from a sequence of keys and sets all values to the given value.

Example:

keys = ['a', 'b', 'c']

new_dict = [Link](keys, 0)

print(new_dict) # Output: {'a': 0, 'b': 0, 'c': 0}

4. [Link](key, default=None)

Returns the value for the key if it exists, else returns the default.

Example:

d = {'a': 1}

print([Link]('a')) # Output: 1

print([Link]('b', 0)) # Output: 0


5. dict.has_key(key)

Deprecated in Python 3. Use 'key in dict' instead.

Example:

d = {'a': 1}

print('a' in d) # Output: True

6. [Link]()

Returns a view of the dictionary's (key, value) pairs.

Example:

d = {'a': 1, 'b': 2}

print([Link]()) # Output: dict_items([('a', 1), ('b', 2)])

7. [Link]()

Returns a view of the dictionary's keys.

Example:

d = {'a': 1, 'b': 2}

print([Link]()) # Output: dict_keys(['a', 'b'])

8. [Link](key, default=None)

Returns the value of the key. If key is not present, inserts key with a default value.

Example:

d = {'a': 1}

print([Link]('a', 100)) # Output: 1

print([Link]('b', 200)) # Output: 200

9. [Link](dict2)

Updates the dictionary with the key-value pairs from another dictionary.

Example:

d1 = {'a': 1}
d2 = {'b': 2}

[Link](d2)

print(d1) # Output: {'a': 1, 'b': 2}

10. [Link]()

Returns a view of the dictionary's values.

Example:

d = {'a': 1, 'b': 2}

print([Link]()) # Output: dict_values([1, 2])
