dict python add code example

Example 1: add new keys to a dictionary python

d = {'key':'value'}
print(d)
# {'key': 'value'}
d['mynewkey'] = 'mynewvalue'
print(d)
# {'mynewkey': 'mynewvalue', 'key': 'value'}

Example 2: append dictionary python

>>> d1 = {1: 1, 2: 2}
>>> d2 = {2: 'ha!', 3: 3}
>>> d1.update(d2)
>>> d1
{1: 1, 2: 'ha!', 3: 3}

Example 3: Python dict add item

# This automatically creates a new element where
# Your key = key, The value you want to input = value
dictionary_name[key] = value

Example 4: python dictoinary add value

student_scores = {'Simon': 45  }
print(student_scores)
# {'Simon': 45}
student_scores['Sara'] = 63
print(student_scores)
# {'Simon': 45, 'Sara': 63}

Example 5: append to dictionary python

# Append to Dictionary in Python

# Let's say we had the following dictionary:

languages = {'#1': "Python", "#2": "Javascript", "#3": "HTML"}

# There are two ways to add a key-and-value set to this dictionary

# Number 1: By .update() method

languages.update({"#4": "C#"}) # Adds a #4 key-and-value set

#--------------------------------------------

# Number 2: The define-key method

# This is the easier one

languages['#4'] = 'C#'

# ^^ Just updates a key of #4 to C#, or adds it in this case

Example 6: add key to dictionary python

d = {'key': 'value'}
print(d)
# {'key': 'value'}
d['mynewkey'] = 'mynewvalue'
print(d)
# {'key': 'value', 'mynewkey': 'mynewvalue'}
