Python Dicts
A dict is a value in Python that stores multiple values. In that sense, a dict it is quite similar to a list. The main difference is that each value in a list gets an index (0
, 1
, 2
, ...), but in a dict each value gets a key instead, such as name
, age
, etc. Let's take a closer look at dicts works in this lecture.
