\frametitle{Overview of Dictionaries}
\label{sec-2}

\begin{itemize}
\item A dictionary contains meaning of words

\begin{itemize}
\item \emph{Word} is the \emph{key} here.
\item \emph{Meaning} is the \emph{value} here.
\end{itemize}

\item A Key-Value pair data structure

\begin{itemize}
\item Provide key-value mappings
\end{itemize}

\end{itemize}

\label{sec-3}

\begin{itemize}
\item Empty dictionary

\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{mt\_dict = \{\}}

\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{[]} - lists
\item \texttt{\{\}} - dictionaries
\end{itemize}

\end{itemize}

\item With data
\begin{verbatim}
extensions = {'jpg' : 'JPEG Image', 
              'py' : 'Python script',
              'html' : 'Html document', 
              'pdf' : 'Portable Document Format'}
\end{verbatim}

   \textbf{Note} - ordering in dictionaries cannot be relied on
\end{itemize}

\begin{itemize}
\item syntax
\begin{verbatim}
     extensions[key]
\end{verbatim}

\end{itemize}

  
\begin{verbatim}
   In []: print extensions['jpg']
   Out []: JPEG Image
   In []: print extensions['zip']
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}

\frametitle{Adding and Deleting values}
\label{sec-5}

\begin{itemize}
\item Adding a new value
\begin{verbatim}
     In []: extension['cpp'] = 'C++ code'
\end{verbatim}

    adds a new key \emph{cpp} with \emph{C++ code} as value
\item Deleting values
\begin{verbatim}
     In []: del extensions['pdf']
\end{verbatim}

    deletes the key-value pair identified by \emph{pdf}
\item Changing value associated with a key
\begin{verbatim}
     In []: extension['cpp'] = 'C++ source code'
\end{verbatim}

    changes the value of the existing key
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Checking for container-ship of keys}
\label{sec-6}

\begin{verbatim}
   In []: 'py' in extensions
   Out []: True
\end{verbatim}

  Returns \textbf{True} if the \emph{key} is found.
\begin{verbatim}
   In []: 'odt' in extensions
   Out []: False
\end{verbatim}

  Returns \textbf{False} if the \emph{key} is not found.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Retrieve keys and values}
\label{sec-7}

\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{.keys()} method
\begin{verbatim}
     In []: extensions.keys()
\end{verbatim}

    Returns a list of keys in the dictionary.
\item \texttt{.values()} method
\begin{verbatim}
     In []: extensions.values()
\end{verbatim}

    Returns the list of values in the dictionary.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Exercise 1}
