[Tutor] Dictionary command

[Naveed Ahmed Khan]

Dear friends,

 

Thanks a lot for your help my problem is solved. Though I am afraid to tell
you of my real blunder. I mean you must understand that it's my first time
with programming.

 

I was trying to achieve the following:

 

>>> dict = {}
>>> dict['boolean'] = "A value which is either true or false"
>>> dict['integer'] = "A whole number"
>>> print dict['boolean']
A value which is either true or false

 

 

What I was doing was that I was writing dict = () instead of dict = {}, got
it, I was using the wrong bracket.

 

It's really embarrassing, but true.

 

For the next time I will try to figure out how to copy the "Python command
line screen" so that you can see exactly what I have done there.

 

Thanks a lot again.

 

Regards,

 

NAK
