STEP 1

Name and meaning

The dictionary stores pairs: name and meaning. The pairs are recorded inside the brackets.

player = {"name": "Лев", "score": 5}

✦ The player has a name and points.

STEP 2

After the dictionary name, write the key in square brackets. That's how you get his value.

player = {"name": "Лев", "score": 5}
print(player["name"])

✦ A lion will appear.

IN-CLASS PRACTICE

Reprint the dictionary and get the key value.

pet = {"name": "Рекс", "age": 3}
print(pet["name"])
