Another way to build a dictionary is with a _dictionary comprehension_ , where you specify keys and values from a sequence:
python_descriptors_attribute/462180_44_0.txt
it could be done with defining a function for example same code but the else statement will just be outside of the loop (without the else: ofcourse) and you will be using return
python_descriptors_attribute/462180_30_0.txt
There’s also no reason to shy away from changing data types, re-shaping your data can be thought of as a computation, there’s nothing wrong with that, if anything it probably makes your life easier if you’re willing to reshape things to fit the operations that you’re going to do.

This wasn't always the case. Before Python 3.6, items in a dictionary wouldn't be returned in any particular order if you iterated through them. Version 3.6 introduced a new and more efficient dictionary algorithm, which retained insertion order for keys as a convenient side effect.
python_descriptors_attribute/howtousepythondictio_69_0.txt
A similar rule applies to how function outputs work as dictionary values. For the key ` "function_output" ` , we have ` some_func() ` . This means when the dictionary is defined, ` some_func() ` is executed, and the returned value is used as the value for ` "function_output" ` . But ` some_func() ` is _not_ re- execute...

The ` .get() ` method on a dictionary attempts to find a value associated with a given key. If no such value exists, it returns ` None ` or a default that you specify. In some situations you'll want to explicitly raise an error, but much of the time you'll just want to supply a sane default.

To allow square brackets to work on your object, you can **implement a` __getitem__ ` method ** . You'll most often see this done in list-like objects (a.k.a. [ sequences ](https://www.pythonmorsels.com/sequence/) ), or dictionary-like objects (a.k.a. [ mappings ](https://www.pythonmorsels.com/terms/#mapping) ).
