Hello ! I am having a small query regarding dictionaries in python. From Orelly's Programming Python >>>D= {'a' : 1, 'b' : 2, 'c' : 3, 'd' : 4} >>>D.items() [ ('b', 2), ('c', 3), ('d', 4), ('a', 1)] why it is not showing the items in order in which i have inserted. Please tell me why it is happing like this. Thanks in advance. Regards...
