Python Dictionary Key Operations

'key' in my_dict is the preferred method to check for a key's existence, operating in O(1) time. The len(my_dict) function returns the count of key-value pairs, while my_dict.clear() removes all items from the dictionary. Additionally, my_dict.update(other_dict) merges two dictionaries, with overlapping keys being overwritten by values from other_dict.
