Python dictionary is very powerful in-built data type which are essentially key value pairs.
Syntax of a dictionary - {'key':'value' }
Sample dictionary - student = {"name":"BeingSkilled"}
Iterating over in the dictionary -
for k,v in student.items():
print("Name is",k,"and", "Value is",v)
print(student)
To access value of a dictionary -
print(student['name'])
BeingSkilled - #this returns the value of the key from the dictionary variable name called Student.
#To delete the items of a dictionary, use clear()
student.clear()
for k,v in student.items():
print("Name is",k,"and", "Value is",v)
print(student)
