Dictionary

A dictionary is a list of items with key and value pairs. The best way to describe it is by using examples. Let's start:

• To declare a key–value pair of the host and IP, enter the following (for example):

hosts_dictionary = { 'Srv-001':'10.0.0.100', 'Srv-002':'10.0.0.100'}

• To add a new item to a dictionary, do the following:

hosts_dictionary = { 'Srv-001':'10.0.0.100', 'Srv-002':'10.0.0.101'}hosts_dictionary['Srv-003'] = '10.0.0.103'print hosts_dictionary

• To update an existing item in a dictionary, do the following:

hosts_dictionary = { 'Srv-001':'10.0.0.100', 'Srv-002':'10.0.0.101'}hosts_dictionary['Srv-002'] = '10.0.0.122'print hosts_dictionary

• To delete an existing item in a dictionary, do the following:

hosts_dictionary ...
