"# builtin_replace"
It is a very simple and friendly tool to replace the built-in PYTHON DICTIONARY.
Example:
from pylab import dict
var = dict("apple, banana: 20 ; mango, tea: True ; habit : 'good'")
print(var)
Output:
{'apple': 20, 'banana': 20, 'mango': True, 'tea': True, 'habit': 'good'}
Explanation:
(i) semi-colons(;) are used to seperate each key-value pair
(ii) we can set many keys to the same value just by seperating them with ","
(iii) colons(:) are used to seperate a key from value
(iv) dict() converts the string to BUILT-IN Dictionary
Advantages:
(i) No need to write the Quotation mark ("" or '') each time for defining a key
(ii) More User friendly Syntax
(iii) Assigns several keys consisting of same value more quickly
(iv) Reduces coding when working with many key-value pairs
Disadvantages:
(i) Annoying to import a library
