Dictionaries are unordered compound datatypes of python.There are defined using {}. Following are python programs to show use and structure of dictionary datatype.
1. (Sort based on value)Write a Python program to sort (ascending and descending) a dictionary by value.
2. (Sort based on key) Write a Python program to sort (ascending and descending) a dictionary by key.
3.Write a Python program to concatenate following dictionaries to create a new one. Sample Dictionary :
dic1={1:10, 2:20}
dic2={3:30, 4:40}
dic3={5:50,6:60}
Expected Result : {1: 10, 2: 20, 3: 30, 4: 40, 5: 50, 6: 60}
4.Write a Python program to sum all the items in a dictionary.
In below example sorted(reverse=False) method is used,where if reverse is set to True than dictionary will be sorted in descending order else by default reverse is always False i.e. ascending order

OUTPUT
>>>
Original dictionary : {0: 0, 1: 2, 2: 1, 3: 4, 4: 3}
Dictionary in ascending order by value : [(0, 0), (2, 1), (1, 2), (4, 3), (3, 4)]
Dictionary in descending order by value : [(3, 4), (4, 3), (1, 2), (2, 1), (0, 0)]
NOTE :
1. Operator module exports a set of functions implemented in C corresponding to the intrinsic operators of Python.
2. Class itemgetter return a callable object that fetches the given item(s) from its operand.
After f = itemgetter(2), the call f(r) returns r[2].
After g = itemgetter(2, 5, 3), the call g(r) returns (r[2], r[5], r[3])
3. items() returns both key and value pair in list of tuples.
EXAMPLE
>>> itvoyagers = {1: 2, 3: 4, 4: 3, 2: 1, 0: 0}
>>> itvoyagers.items()
dict_items([(0, 0), (1, 2), (2, 1), (3, 4), (4, 3)])
