Python dict()
Python dict() function is a constructor which creates a dictionary. Python dictionary provides three different constructors to create a dictionary:
- If no argument is passed, it creates an empty dictionary.
- If a positional argument is given, a dictionary is created with the same key-value pairs. Otherwise, pass an iterable object.
- If keyword arguments are given, the keyword arguments and their values are added to the dictionary created from the positional argument.
Python dict() Example
# Calling function
result = dict() # returns an empty dictionary
result2 = dict(a=1,b=2)
# Displaying result
print(result)
print(result2)
Output:
{}
{'a': 1, 'b': 2}
Python tuple() Function
The python tuple() function is used to create a tuple object.
Python tuple() Function Example
t1 = tuple()
print('t1=', t1)
# creating a tuple from a list
t2 = tuple([1, 6, 9])
print('t2=', t2)
# creating a tuple from a string
t1 = tuple('Java')
print('t1=',t1)
# creating a tuple from a dictionary
t1 = tuple({4: 'four', 5: 'five'})
print('t1=',t1)
Output:
t1= ()
t2= (1, 6, 9)
t1= ('J', 'a', 'v', 'a')
t1= (4, 5)
