Example 1: dictionary in python does not support append operation

dict_append = {"1" : "Python", "2" : "Java"}
dict_append.update({"3":"C++"})  # append doesn't supported in dict 
								 # instead , use update in dict
print(dict_append)
# output : {'1': 'Python', '2': 'Java', '3': 'C++'}

Example 2: copy a dictionary python

new_dict = old_dict.copy()

Example 3: add new keys to a dictionary python

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